    For those interested, 10.4.7 has been released and is available through the software update.

    The major upgrade is the two-finger tap to produce a right-click for the 15" MBP

    After updating, I've had to restart twice :/

    OSX suddenly stopped letting me open up zip files and then stopped letting me open new programs. Also, before restarting, I noticed that my fan was spinning like crazy. When I checked CoreTempDuo I noticed my CPU temp was 85C and I was just web browsing!!

    After second restart, everything seems to be running fine. Hopefully it stays that way...

    Ya the point updates can kinda be a little finicky sometimes. If you have more problems take a look at macfixit.com. They usually have good solutions.

    I updated yesterday when I decided to randomly check for some updates.

    Everything worked fine for me. :)

    Right, so the 2 finger right click thing is now on the 15" MBP, but does it work in Windows XP???
    Thanks.

    Nope, but there are apparantly hacks for that if needed. Or you could just use an external mouse, or (and this is the best option) you could just use OS X!
