Default OS X 10.5.7 has been released

Just out, check your Software Update.

Combo update is here.

Software Update is knackered on my Macbook - it just sits there and never actually does anything. Luckily I can open terminal and do it through there.

Ta for the heads up

Not any more it isn't! 10.5.7 seems to have fixed it.

I'm just updating the Mini.

One improvement really grabbed my attention:

Bugger - that appears to have killed the Mini. When it gets to the logon screen I just get a white background with some garbled black text and graphics.

Ah well, good job I have a time machine backup.

Panic over I think, a few more reboots should have it up and running again.

It'd be a real pain if it is knackered because I was planning on using it on the Eurostar tomorrow to keep me occupied.

There's a fix on the mydellmini forums, I spotted it last night but I can't get to it easily from work to link it.
