  The “combo” update includes every component that has been modified for every previous “dot-dot” update, so it should get larger each time during the run of a major release. Since we are up to “dot-dot-seven,” it should be pretty large by now, and that IS pretty large.

  Probably because it’s the “incremental” update, versus the “combo” update.

Macs get the snappy updates while PC’s get the slappy headaches.

I’ll wait a few days to see if any reports of problems emerge first.

In the meantime, I haven’t restarted my system since the last update. Can any Windoze losers ay that?

I used the manual “combo” update this time, instead of letting Software Update do it incrementally. Everything feels just a little smoother and more “snappy.” It’s (almost) a shame that when things are working REALLY nicely, I’ll feel compelled to install a brand new “big cat” in a few months, as soon as it’s available.

  Maybe it’s broken, period (as in physically due to a hardware problem). Try booting from your Snow Leopard installation disk and seeing if it’s working when you start up from a minimal unaltered system?
