Apple to Release first Tiger Update
Ninj4Bytes writes "AppleInsider is reporting on the first update to Mac OS X Tiger. The update is reported to address 'over three dozen componets, with an emphasis on improving general stability and reliability'. The patch is listed for a mid to late May release."
If you take the developer tools and install them, there is a Quartz 2D Extreme debugger utility that indicates the component is indeed there, but disabled. You can enable it, but some people have said it causes some interesting problems.

Here's another example.
In the "Welcome to Tiger" booklet that comes with OSX, there's a shot of Tiger's spotlight search bringing back results showing documents, images, settings, etc. Under the photos, they focus on a section where you can blow out the details of individual photos and see the metadata used by the search to find it. Clearly shown in the sample (and indeed demoed by Steve Jobs himself at various keynotes) are the keywords assigned to the photos in the iPhoto software. This has never been searchable on my system, even after a rebuild and repair of permissions by the install disc. Some people are reporting this is fine, while others are having the exact same problem.

Don't install shit before you know how to remove it.
