by Christina Warren May 28th 2008
The latest point update for Mac OS X Leopard has just been released. If you thought OS X 10.5.2 was big, hold onto your socks because 10.5.3 is even bigger. The combo update for versions of Leopard prior to 10.5.2 is 536 megabytes and the standard update for users of 10.5.2 is a still staggering 420 megabytes.Still, with big sizes come BIG changes, fixes and features. Apple has the full list, but here are some highlights:
- Addresses stuttered audio or video playback from certain USB devices
- Improved Airport and 802.11x behavior and reliability
- iPhone users can now sync their address book contacts with their Google account
- Safari works better when connecting through a Microsoft ISA proxy
- Improved Spotlight search on AFP volumes
- Improved iCal syncing
- Fixes issues with authenticated RSS feeds in Mail.app

Gonna hold off on updating a few days. Wanna make sure all of my GUI mods hold before I go ahead and take the chance of deleting them.

I was pleasantly surprised to see the download at a very-reasonable 198 megabytes for a fully patched 10.5.2 MacBook Pro.
Its downloading now...
