You've been dying for it: 10.4.10 update in works

[Silencio]

With the release of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard pushed back to October, Apple has bought itself more time to tie loose ends in the current Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger operating system and will put forth those fixes via its first "dot ten" software update in quite some time, AppleInsider has learned.

According to those people familiar with the matter, the first pre-release builds of Mac OS X 10.4.10 began making the rounds in Cupertino earlier this month.

According to other sources, Apple's Tiger roadmap has provisions for up to five more updates past 10.4.10, though the highest it's likely to go is 10.4.12.

Why only 16 updates? Do they encode the version numbers in hexadecimal or something? How 'bout that Mac OS X 10.4.0A?

So this opens the door all the way to .99 upgrades. And you think you'll see Leopard on October!

If we ever wanted proof that Apple uses bugs in the existing OS to push people to the new one...

Math was never my strong suit, but .10 means the same to me here as .1. Why not 10.4.91 ?

never been past .9 before AFAIK.

Pretty much what I was thinking.

BRING BACK 7.5.3!

10.4.10! Hope they've done something about the "spinning beachball", or at least give us the ability to stop it without killing the browser. If they don't, they can stuff it!!
