Attention ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro or Radeon HD 2400 XT graphics card equipped iMac users: It’s time for an update of the firmware variety. If you fall into the above mentioned demographic and you’re running Mac OS X v10.5.2 or later, this update is for you.

The update, creatively titled iMac ATI Radeon HD Graphics Firmware Update 1.0.1, makes a change to the graphics card firmware on these systems that improves system stability. Once it’s done, the Mac’s Boot ROM or SMC version information (as listed in System Profiler) will read 113-B2250L-259. Ooh.

So get on with it and enjoy your improved stability (system stability, that is. We can’t account for emotional stability at this point.)
