I would not characterize it as a “patch” either, since this is a rewrite of much of the OS, going from OS X.10.3 to OS X.10.4. Those are major upgrades in the Mac world. . . Security “patches” are pushed out silently in the background, of as “security patches”, not as point level upgrades, which include new functionality as well as other improvements, bug fixes, etc.
Right, well, the author of this article seemed to think it newsworthy because of the severity of the security patches provided on this one this time about, so it seemed worthy of noting at least. Thanks for the feedback.
Cheers.
