In addition to OS X 10.5.2, Apple also dished out a few not-quite-as-sexay-but-still-worth-getting-because-I’m-sure-they’re-at-least-sorta-important-you-know? software updates for your downloading pleasure.
The Security Update 2008-01 “is recommended for all users and improves the security of Mac OS.” The PPC version weighs in at 16.7MB, and the cooler, more modern Universal update is 28.8MB.
Then there’s the Leopard Graphics Update 1.0, which requires 10.5.2, and “is recommended for all users and improves the stability and compatibility of your Mac.” Useful, no? The download is 48.8MB from Apple’s site.
Apple also spit out WebObjects 5.4.1, which “fixes several bugs in areas such as web services serialization, deployment tools, and database compatibility, among others.” Requires Leopard, and is a whopping 153MB.
And last but certainly not least…[drumroll please]…Mac OS X Server 10.5.2! The update is not quite as boisterous as the client 10.5.2, listing only improvements to Software Update Server, Mail Server, and Password Server. But hey, improvements are improvements, right?

I'll have you know that Leopard Graphics Update 1.0 has a great personality and 10.5.2 is just jealous.
Bring on the AppleTV update! Don't stop at Leopard! :-)
I'm updating my mac right now. On the ol' iPhone in the meantime. 180 MB download, and two restarts so far.
What about my apple TV?
I believe this security update is for Tiger only....
Well, now I hope Unsanity goodies will fly and updates will be released soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Be very careful when using an AirDisk volume under 10.5.2. I just tried to rename a file and it simply disappeared when I confirmed the change by pressing return. An unknown error -36 message showed up and my file went up in smoke ...
