Apple releases Leopard 10.5.4 combo update

Apple has just released the newest update to Leopard 10.5.4 and I recommend that all 10.5 users if your planning on updating use the combo update rather then the delta.

Apple said the Mac OS X 10.5.4 Update is recommended for Mac OS X 10.5, 10.5.1, 10.5.2, and 10.5.3 Leopard. It includes general operating system improvements that enhance the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac.

The Mac OS X 10.5.4 Update is recommended for all versions of Mac OS X 10.5 through 10.5.3.

• The combo update lets you update from Mac OS X 10.5, 10.5.1, 10.5.2, or 10.5.3 to 10.5.4

• Resolves an issue with saving and reopening Adobe Creative Suite 3 files on a remote server.

• Resolves an Exposé issue that may result in only a subset of windows being shown.
