30 Day alert for Leopard? ::grin::

 

Yay for the update with automatic network connections--it was always rather embarrassing to have to reboot my PB every time I went to the Genius Bar and my PB went to spinny-death-land when it tried to automatically connect to the Applestore wireless network. I was starting to think it was me. ::D:

 

Uggh, this means another update for saft, etc doesn't it? ::blech::

Funny for you, quite surprising for me. I had no idea we had any «modem problems» here in Russia. I actually used it once or twice when my DSL went down and i really needed to get online.
