We reported on the lack of Atom support in development builds of Mac OS X 10.6.2, but a more recent build re-enables support for Intel's Atom line, popular in netbooks. "In the latest development build Atom appears to have resurrected itself zombie style in 10C535. The Atom lives another day, but nothing is concrete until the final version of 10.6.2 is out."

It appears that 10.6.2 is turning into Apple's very own Service Pack 2 - packed with a tonne of fixes across the board. An interesting thing that has happened, the X3100 GMA is now 64bit, so I guess gradually we're seeing Apple migrating their own drivers to 64bit during 10.6 release cycle in time for going fully 64bit when 10.7 is released - I'm sure they'll keep the 32bit kernel/support around for a while.
