Mac OS X 10.4.3

My top five anticipated features in Mac OS X 10.4.3:

  • iChat preferences now allow you to display emoticons (such as a smiley face) as text (such as “:-)”) instead of as a graphic. Great for cross-coding monkeys communication.

  • .Mac members can enable encrypted chat sessions after installing this update. Might come in handy.

  • Disk Utility can verify the Mac OS X 10.4 startup volume with this update. Might come in handy.

  • Keychain Access searching is no longer case-sensitive after installing this update. Useful if you stored SanDeE*’s phone number in your Keychain.

  • Items copied into a Drop Box have permissions set correctly.

Do not meddle in the affairs of Coding Ninjas, for they are subtle and quick to anger.
