OS X 10.4.10 Released

As I'm going to have to wait a day or two for this, has anyone found any quirks (like the eject delay in 10.4.9) ?

What holiday is that? I mean, I've heard of having to give up meat during Lent, but on what holiday do you have to give up... gasp broadband?!?

(Remind me not to observe that holiday.)
 
I hope it fixes the shutdown freeze and spinning beach ball of death over the menu bar problems I've been having on my iMac C2D (happens consistently if you "restart" from running Windows XP into OS X without fully powering down, but also happens regularly with a completely clean boot).
 
Brilliant, I love this, obviously, this is a fake update as Apple would never make such a basic maths error.
 
If I recall this is the first time an Apple OS has reached the double digits for an update. I could be wrong though.
 
Works for me. The eject key doesn't need to be held down so long now.... or is it my imagination.
 
Why on earth...

Why on earth would you risk installing an update while you're on a trip?

If something goes wrong, you're without a computer.

When I travel the laptop is an important piece of gear - whether I'm on holiday or business, I need the laptop for mail, news, airline info, photo downloading.... My rule is "no updates" from 3 days before departure, until I get back.

You've got to be kidding right? If not, you may want to ask Sun about their "J2.1E R5.4.90 v.9.5.44 alpha"

holding option + command + eject has always worked in previous updates.

No, it hasn't. Beginning with 10.4.8 or 10.4.9, it only worked intermittently on some machines. The 10.4.10 release notes specifically mention fixes to eject-key shutdown functionality, so clearly Apple agree that it was a real bug.

I swear there was a 10.3.10. Maybe there wasn't and they just made it a "security update". I've known for awhile(years) that apple cant count and does .10 updates, I just don't know where from... maybe quiktime er smthn

Why on earth would you be so paranoid about an system update? I mean...maybe if it was from MS...but I would never expect an official "Update" straight from Apple to fry my computer lol

No there wasn't, but there have been some double-digit pre-OSX updates...
