A nice, meaty upgrade to Snow Leopard will be good. Hopefully they don't wait until 10.7 to finish the new QT (getting it up to the features of QT 7) and upgrade iTunes to 64b.
I haven't really noticed, but iLife isn't fully 64b either, is it?

'... contains only one known issues' this surely has to mean the full release is just around the corner :)
Still nothing in the seed notes about the trackpad/exposes bouncing windows issue :(

iTunes 9 has always been 64 bit. They'll do 64-bit for the rest in iLife '10

I have been having issues playing the multiplayer game cube 2 sauerbraten, it freezes and crashes and can not even quit so I have to restart my computer. Does this mean the graphic driver updates going to fix that issue? I have a ATI Radeon X1600 Graphics card.
Well I can not wait to see what other problems it will fix for me, I guess we all have to wait until next or the week after.:rolleyes:

Please Apple fix the issues with Duel Systems Adapters, they worked perfect in Leopard (Apple even included the drivers) but in SL there's no support grrr.
Unless someone knows of another good adapter that would allow PCMCIA cards to be used with a Mac Book Pro with ExpressCard
