The 10.3.8 Update delivers improved compatibility and reliability for Mac OS X v10.3 "Panther" and is recommended for all users.

Key updates include:
improved OpenGL technology and updated ATI and NVIDIA graphics drivers
improved file sharing and directory services for mixed Mac and PC networks
improved compatibility for third party applications and devices
previous standalone security updates
Maybe this will fix some of the problems with WoW and some other games.


Gentlemen (and ladies), fire up your Software Update. Unless, of course, you're chicken.

Some people are reporting fan issues with their dual 2.0s, so I'll hold on a bit longer.

I have yet to fire up GarageBand 2 after this update, but I'm hoping it has fixed some of the crackles and latency issues I've had using real instruments.

I don't usually check the OS section of MacNN, I like many others, am primarily a "Lounger".


So, does it fix some game issues?

I know, I know... let's just get beyond that.

Not long ago, I remember being the first person to know when an update came out, now I don't have the time for such things.

Actually, you're the fifth rev. B owner I've heard from and reported no fan problems. Maybe it's a rev. A thing.

Can't update My DSL line has been down for three days now and I'm forced to use dial-up. I've got several updates waiting for me.

You poor soul. No one should be forced to use dial-up.

SBC just told me I won't get my DSL back up and running until the 23rd! I'm dying! I'll have to go to the Apple Store to use their network to update.

SBC will only charge for the last week of the month. If you meant Apple, their wireless is free.

Good.

Of course, it'd be better if they'd just give you internet access, huh?

Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf - Japanese Green Tea Latte. I quit coffee. Together with nervousness and acid stomach I had a hard time keeping down food for a year. Tea is good.
