OS X 10.5.8 Development Wrapping Up?

MacRumors has received word that Apple seeded OS X Leopard 10.5.8 Build 9L30 to developers last night, including only a single documented change related to an issue with external monitors and waking from sleep mode. There are reportedly no listed outstanding issues in the latest build.

Apple's previous seed of 10.5.8 (Build 9L29) was pushed to developers just five days earlier, and the single increment in build number between the two releases suggests that Apple may be very close to completing work on what many expect to be the final update to Leopard before the release of OS X Snow Leopard in September.

OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard will be available to Leopard users for only $29 and will primarily incorporate "under the hood" changes designed to improve performance and stability.

Wow! Only one variation of Mac OS X? Not a dozen like microsoft? Also 29$? Not 199$? Woohoo I am sold!

Personally, can anyone name off the different variations of Windows 7? They do not make sense....

I really want that bug fix as it sounds like it the cause of my iTunes crashing woes. Crossing my fingers.

Wonder if this will be the last major revision to 10.5?

Yay. But I don't think this will be the last update to Leopard.
