Apple Releases First Beta of macOS High Sierra 10.13.1 to Public Beta Testers
Apple today released the first beta of an upcoming macOS High Sierra 10.13.1 update to developers, one day after seeding the update to developers and a few days after releasing the new High Sierra operating system to the public.
Beta testers who have signed up for Apple's beta testing program will be able to download the new macOS High Sierra beta through the Software Update mechanism in the Mac App Store.
Those who want to be a part of Apple's beta testing program can sign up to participate through the beta testing website, which gives users access to iOS, macOS, and tvOS betas.
macOS High Sierra 10.13.1 appears to focus primarily on bug fixes, performance improvements, security enhancements, and other under-the-hood updates. No major outward-facing features were found in the developer beta.
macOS High Sierra is an update that's designed to improve and refine macOS Sierra. Along with a new, more efficient file system designed for modern storage, the update introduces High Efficiency Video Encoding (HEVC aka H.265).
Many apps have small tweaks and feature updates in High Sierra. Photos features a new persistent side view and editing tools for Curves, Selective Color, and Live Photos, while Safari offers a new autoplay blocking feature for videos and Intelligent Tracking Prevention to protect your privacy.
Full details on all of the new features in macOS High Sierra can be found in our macOS High Sierra roundup.

They'll probably get around to it in another few years.
Hmmm, yes MacOSX is soooo buggy. I think I will switch to windows now...

Lets also hope it fixes Yahoo Mail, e.g.:
1. Can't always delete mails
2. Drafts get left in that folder, multiple copies per mail, even when the mail has been sent
You still you Yahoo Mail. Talk about a security issue..

Apple is one of the fastest companies to patch their operating systems across a wide range of devices. The vulnerability was made public only a few weeks before the launch and they have already reported it has been corrected.

It appears that they took away command-P as an option to print in Safari! I was printing (to PDF) a bunch of things, and after the upgrade, poof, that went away. Going to File -> Print is such a damned pain.
I went ahead and downloaded WebKit. That worked... Crazy!
