Apple Insider

For the second time in as many weeks, Apple has handed developers a new pre-release build of an upcoming maintenance and security release for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and asked that they spend the weekend testing the software.

Mac OS X 10.5.5 build 9F9 comes exactly one week after the Mac maker began widespread testing of Leopard update by privately distributed build 9F5 to its vast developer community.

Since then, the Cupertino-based company has implemented two dozen additional code corrections to bring the total number of bug fixes expected as part of Mac OS X 10.5.5 to more than 100, people familiar with the latest build say.

An article to remind you that regardless of the operating system, you need to apply core fixes and patches in order to resolve/prevent known issues and ‘be in support’. The first thing your vendor/service provider will ask is if all the patches are applied. Check it out, if you’ve got a Mac, run the software update tool.
