    Everything still works. I havent seen any killer bugs popping up on macfixit or versiontracker either. Also note that the QT Java update is included - fixed one broken site for me that Panther QT had knocked out.

    Oh and a bluetooth update, but my Sony Ericsson already works flawlessly (and still does post-update).

    And yes, it does require a restart for all of you running the "Show Off" uptime screen saver.
