    10.2.3 Has new window widgets for the "Brushed Metal" windows...

      I don't know if I want to be a mac user anymore

      Personally, I prefer the new sunken-look ones, but it's fair if you like the previous...

      Talking to a few other mac people I know, they're acting like Apple is on crack for ruining a GUI by changing those few little buttons. The response seemed more volatile than when flowerpower imacs appeared

      We scare me sometimes.

    isn't a story about a 0.0.1 "enhancement" upgrade that Software Update would have told me about anyway kind of superfluous?

    Not totally. If Guinea Pigs, i.e. me, have major problems with it, this is a very good place to tell others to not update to 10.2.3 until the problem is fixed.

    And at 50MB, it's a pretty big update anyways.

    Otherwise you're right. This story should be rolled back into "weekly updates" or something...

    I noticed that the command-tab function finally works as expected by switching between the most often used programs rather than simpy by order placed in the dock.

    it fixed it, as far as I can tell. Your iSub is now free to majorly annoy your upstairs neighbors.:)
