Apple has finally released Mac OS X 10.6.2, the latest version of its Snow Leopard operating system, and be prepared for a massive update for your Mac: 473MB. There's a lot of stuff in here, and among other things, it includes a fix for the guest account data loss bug.

Thankfully, my download was about 30 % of what I've seen reported, for whatever reason. A few others have mentioned it as well, so I'm not too worried.
What worries me is that I'm not seeing a whole lot of fixes to things I use, such as Bluetooth tethering. I haven't tried to tether my phone using USB since the update but it didn't work at all since Snow Leopard since they changed the method completely. (I'm connecting through my PowerBook now and yes, it does not run Snow Leopard.)
Apple, since part way through Leopard development, seem hell-bent on visuals rather than making things work in a way that makes a user more efficient and effective. Being a show-off often gets the 15 minutes of fame but in the end, it's the one in the background that gets true success.
Well, I guess I'll keep waiting for 10.6.4, hoping that the answers will make it to my machine by then.
