As I had reported previously, 10.5.2 is rumored to be coming out soon. However, these hopes might be dashed. It looks like Mac OS X 10.5.2 is not quite ready for prime time. The seeds released last week had no big reported issues… However it looks as though they want to work on it some more.
Earlier today Apple provided developers with the 9C27 seed.
Since the launch of Leopard, this is the most anticipated update yet. There had been one minor update 3 weeks after the Leopard launch… But since then the developers have been working hard on 10.5.2.
I’ll continue to keep an eye on this! Can’t wait for 10.5.2!

I can’t wait for them to get this thing out! To get a STABLE version of the operating system is almost as exciting as getting a new version … I remember that with Tiger it took almost up to version 5 to have the major bugs under control and have a truely enjoyable system… hope the leopard does it in two
I hope they fix some of issues affecting lethargy and screen/mouse responsiveness. My brand new Leopard 10.5.1 iMac C2D is still far less responsive than my sons 3 year old XP HP laptop. Some times I have to click three or four times on a window to get its attention.
Stacks are stupid. I would like to put real folders in the Dock like Tiger. Don’t these people notice that the screens are wider than they are tall. Having HUGE dock at the bottom is consumes a lot of screen real estate. Mine’s on the side of course and we all know what the stack would look like dangling limply from there.
Coverflow in finder would be more helpful if ALL of the icons automatically had previews. My Leopard doesn’t, particularly pictures – I just get a jpeg icon. Huh? What did I miss here. There’s nothing as bad as something good done half-assed.
Time Machine doesn’t make much sense. In Thunderbird for example, each folder in your Inbox (including Send, Trash, etc.) are individual files. If you do a lot of email then TM will be having a field day making backup copies of your email files. Duh?
