Apple menu -> About This Mac then click "Version 10.5" and the build # will show up.
Signature depreciated.

Thanks erik. Any idea how many revisions the testers used before it became GM?
Kevin....I was just wondering...sometimes I do that. I won't be upgrading anytime soon. BTW I have full retail verions of every OS X version since 10.0. Still have everyone in their original packaging....not a collector I just thought it would be nice to have them all.

I don't think anyone really has that answer and it really doesn't matter.

Who cares if they did 1 or 100 revisions, the product is out and appears fairly bug free and stable.
