Anyway, some interesting stuff in there and thanks again Apple (seriously). If Apple can do .x fixes once every few months, it is amazing it takes Microsoft several years for a service pack!
I have 15" PowerBook running 10.4.5. Will be installing it shortly.
It's about time that they do something about this issue. I'm still at work so I have to wait a little bit before I can do my update.
Good Luck with your Restart peoples.
