iMac Software Update 1.2 (Tiger) and 1.3 (Leopard)

Apple has released iMac Software Update for both Tiger and Leopard.

As always, the release notes are a bit sparse and simply states that "this update provides important bug fixes and is recommended for 20-inch and 24-inch iMac models with 2.0, 2.4, or 2.8GHz processors." An analysis of the update packages indicates that updated graphics drivers have been delivered.

Some had hoped this would fix the intermittent Freezing problem that Apple had promised to address, but a couple of reports in our forums claim this problem persists even after applying the software update.
