Mac OS X 10.5.7 here "this week"?

Business IT - Technology

We're reminded of the boy who cried wolf, but there's a report that Mac OS X 10.5.7 will be released this week.

Mac OS X 10.5.7 has been through several developer releases in quick succession, leading to repeated speculation that its release is imminent.

AppleInsider is now reporting that 10.5.7 is complete and "should be made available for download by the general public sometime this week."

Mind you, AppleInsider said something similar two weeks ago.

Anyone on a broadband plan with a monthly download cap and a pessimistic outlook probably will be expecting that release to happen on Friday. That way, they won't be able to use the leftovers of their April quota for the download - instead it will eat into May's downloads. Stuff happens, right?

Mac OS X 10.5.7 is a wide-ranging bug fix release for Apple's operating system.

Release notes accompanying the developer releases show over 100 issues have been addressed.

Changes have been made to many key components of Mac OS X, including networking, Mail, synchronisation, iChat, graphics, Time Capsule, Help, memory management, widgets, printing, spellchecking, parental controls, and Bluetooth.
