Bizarre System Profiler bug (4.1/Tiger)

[wrldwzrd89]

Anyone who has Tiger, please try this and verify:

Open System Profiler (in the Utilities folder)
Save your system profile in the System Profiler 4.0 (XML) format
Quit System Profiler
Open the saved system profile
Menu weirdness ensues - fonts are odd, all menus are blank, choosing the big blank command executes whatever the first command in the menu should be. You can still quit System Profiler with Apple+Q; after a relaunch without opening a file, all returns to normal.

I couldn't replicate this, although oddly, the process of trying to save the XML file crashed Firefox, which was running in the background. Guess I just can't win! 😱

Yep, looks normal to me too..

Interesting...it is normal for me, now, as well. I wonder what happened then.
