Firefox is so bloated these days. I recently switched over to Safari after using Firefox for the last 6 years.

Shouldn't Safari updates move to the app store [TM] eventually? It's not part of the OS.

Apple should add an option to the app store [TM] to allow simultaneous checks of:
1. updates in OS X app store
2. updates in OS X software update
3. updates in itunes app store

One click - scan them all and ask for download choices and permission.

Has the update caused headaches for someone? I know it's causing me headaches. Can't go into main system and I am stuck at login page. If I do manage to go in, the entire system crawls to a halt after a minute. This was right after the "update".
