Mac OS X 10.2.3, a disposición de los usuarios :UPDATED:

Ya está aqui la tan esperada actualización de sistema Mac OS X 10.2.3.

:UPDATE 21/12@08:59 AM:

Los usuarios en general están bastante satisfechos del update: en diferentes sites de internet, así como los usuarios del canal de IRC #faq-mac han comentado que el update ha sacado un poquito mas de «punta» a la velocidad de las máquinas.

Los usuarios con tarjetas ATI RagePro se han encontrado con una sustancial mejora en el comportamient ode sus tarjetas. Se nota la mejora general con OpenGL 1.4.

Otra pequeña sorpresa es la posibilidad de formatear discos con datos a cero desde disk utility.

Así mismo, la navegación en los cuadros de dialogo abrir/guardar ya no es tan «pegajosa».

Virtual PC 6.0 emula bastante rápido con este nuevo update en máquinas de 500 MHz(G4) o superior.
