Mac OS X 10.3.2 - First experiences

The build 7D12 feels ready for prime-time. However, it is not currenctly known how long Apple will take for the beta phase. With the recent amount of glitches from Apple's software updates, it is assumed that Apple will rather hold back any such updates a bit longer for better and more quality checks. We'll inform you about newer beta builds as soon as we are informed. So stay tuned...

AppleStore was down: New PowerMac G5 Dual 1.8 GHz, new iMac 20"

Apple announced a new PowerMac model today: The Dual 1.8 GHz model. It's priced at 2499$ between the old 1.8 GHz model and the Dual 2.0 GHz model. Great news for pro users!
Also new: A 20" iMac model with a 1.25 GHz G4 chip inside. This is surely great news for the X-Mas buying season, as the new iMac will also promote the 'lower' iMac models. (Kid wants 20" model and is happy to even get a 17" iMac.) ;-)
