Mac OS X 10.2.8 Update, Take Two

Posted by michael on from the do-you-feel-lucky? dept.

javaxman writes "OS X users will find Mac OS X Update version 10.2.8 is available via 'Software Update'. If you did not install the previous 10.2.8 update, the size of the new update is 40.6MB. If you installed the previous update, the size of the new update is small, ~680K... if you can connect to the network, that is. Clearly you get different downloads depending on what you did with the previous 10.2.8 update. Apple Knowledge Base article 25524 has the details. It looks very familiar. I'm installing mine right away, how about you?"

    In the immortal words of George "DoubleYa":

    "Fool me once...shame on you....
    Fool me twice...umm....
    Shame..on...Shame...on...
    Well you're not gonna fool me again..."

    I'll wait for some other people to install first..

    Indeed! And this new petroleum distillate from the local service shoppe doesn't work for me either. Without the added "lead", it wreaks havoc with my Stutz Bearcat.

    Tell you what, if you can find a way to re-vulcanize my tires, I'll give you a shiny new nickel so you can buy a new Macintosh.
