Apple today released a series of Mac OS X 10.6.8 releases, apparently revising the original version as well as offering a "supplemental update" to patch systems that have already been upgraded to the latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
The Mac OS X 10.6.8 Supplemental Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and resolves issues with:
- Transferring personal data, settings, and compatible applications from a Mac running Mac OS X Snow Leopard to a new Mac running Mac OS X Lion

If you have a revision nomenclature, stick to it.
This is going to be very confusing. Imagine the support call "What OS? " 10.6.8. "Which One? " Huh?
This. Now we sysadmins have to worry about which version of 10.6.8 is installed on each workstation. ARD won't be of help; it will report both patched and unpatched as 10.6.8. Just what I needed; more work. :confused:
The standard support for TRIM that isnt working in third party SSDs.
I don't have crashing issues, but I do think Lion is pretty buggy.
i also asked apple for a refund which they have agreed to.
Lets be clear that just because you don't have problems with your installation it doesn't mean other people are having major issues with theirs.
mac os x lion in my opinion just has too many bugs. Maybe i'll try again when .1 or .2 has dropped.
