Mac OS X 10.6.2 is available via Software Update or as two standalone downloads: the Mac OS X 10.6.2 Update is 473 MB and the Mac OS X 10.6.2 Update (Combo) is 479 MB.

Also, Mac OS X 10.6.2’s screen saver seems to take a very long time to build a list of files to display when pointed at a folder or folder hierarchy containing more than a few thousand images. On the downside, Snow Leopard’s bug affecting Apple Events (which Matt Neuburg identified in “ Tracking Down Snow Leopard’s Apple Events Bug,” 13 October 2009) is still present.

While Apple didn’t note whether or not it fixed the problem with Snow Leopard screen sharing – in which remote screens appear all black until the quality setting (View menu) is toggled or reselected – we no longer have the problem when connecting from Snow Leopard systems running 10.6.2 to other computers.
