so the macdefender patch came out today but i thought it was gonna come together with os x 10.6.8, well.. where is osx 10.6.8? i think its about time they release it already.
 
Mac OS X 10.6.8 will include the security update that was released today. Apple decided not to wait until 10.6.8 is released to address MacDefender.

Why? The whole point of 10.6.8 was to patch macdefender which was done in a security update instead.
 
Um.. No. it will have updated graphic drivers and updated macstore and general overall system enhancements for the 2011 iMacs and macbook pros. (which i own)

Who says, apple doesn't really divulage any details to unreleased patches. As for where it is. Its not been released by apple. They'll do it when they think its a solid bug free update

have u not read the news lately about 10.6.8? the third dev seed came out few days ago . here have a read:

http://www.tuaw.com/2011/05/28/another-mac-os-x-10-6-8-build-seeded-to-developers/

i quote "The developer seed became available late yesterday, and focuses on AirPort, Networking, Graphics Drivers, the Mac App Store, QuickTime, and VPN. As usual, Apple has requested that developers file bug reports if any quirks are found. "

There u go, so thats why i wait for that update, it is a huge 1gb update lol so its not like it will be a small update 😉

heck, they say it will be the last snow leopard update 🙂

Just a little note...they are usually always 1 GB during development but drop down to 600 MB - 700 MB when released.
 
oh ok .. but still man, there are some nice fixes to look out for and also they say 10.6.8 might gives us a new feature or two..

i mean, again , they say it is probably the last snow leopard update so they need to make it right and give it all they have u know so i understand the extra time it takes them.. after this its all Lion 😀😉
