Apple today released a third security update--presumably to fix issues found in the second security update released earlier this week. Ironically, the previous update was also released to address inadequate security fixes and bugs introduced in the first update released earlier this month. Available for Mac OS X 10.4.5 Tiger on both Intel client and PPC Server/Client systems, Security Update 2006-002 v1.1 outlines the same updated components: apache_mod_php, CoreTypes, LaunchServices, Mail, rsync, and Safari, but is now labeled as v1.1. Further information is not yet available. The updates are not yet available via the Software Update. The update comes on the heels of important Mac security updates for Microsoft Excel and Adobe Flash and a new QuickTime/iTunes flaw that has yet to be addressed by Apple.

I've seen this comment in so many different forms on so many different forums that it's really starting to get weary.

LOL! Microsoft has had a Mactopia division for some time now. The Mac Office is generally regarded as superior to the Windows version.

No. But they do have flaws. Its still safer to run a Mac or a Linux PC than Windows.

I wasn't put off by Algore being on the Apple Board Of Directors when I bought my Mac Mini last fall.

If Mac users are gay, why do Windows users have the diseases?

I looked down and the software updater already had it up and ready to install for 10.3. Installing now.

Does anyone know if it is possible to run the X86 version of OS/X on any Intel clone system?
I know they're are some hacks to do it but I want to be able to buy the boxed version of the O/S and install it.

A problem with that is you won't have any device driver support which would probably fubar performance.
