Apple has finally released Mac OS X 10.6.2, the update that might be ill-fated for Hackintosh netbook users.

The 10.6.2 Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Snow Leopard and includes general operating system patches that enhance the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac, including fixes for:

  • an issue that might cause your system to logout unexpectedly
  • a graphics distortion in Safari Top Sites
  • Spotlight search results not showing Exchange contacts
  • a problem that prevented authenticating as an administrative user
  • issues when using NTFS and WebDAV file servers
  • the reliability of menu extras
  • an issue with the 4-finger swipe gesture
  • an issue that causes Mail to quit unexpectedly when setting up an Exchange server
  • Address Book becoming unresponsive when editing
  • a problem adding images to contacts in Address Book
  • an issue that prevented opening files downloaded from the Internet
  • Safari plug-in reliability
  • general reliability improvements for iWork, iLife, Aperture, Final Cut Studio, MobileMe, and iDisk
  • an issue that caused data to be deleted when using a guest account

 

For more information about this update you can visit Apple’s website. If you are a netbook owner, you might want to consider holding off on updating until we get confirmation that this update kills support for the Intel Atom processor, as previously reported.
