<br>We've received <a href=http://riceness.net/ target=_blank><u>reports</u></a> that the rather creative OSx86 hacking community has created another release, this time to update existing 10.4.1 installations to many of the new features introduced in 10.4.3. Sources indicate that the new security features implemented in 10.4.3 have prevented a full release and that this update is in lieu of that release.
<br>
<br>This packaged, dubbed a "10.4.1 Update", reportedly installs many of the 10.4.3 files including an updated Safari & Webkit, the x86 unibin of Flash, a Quicktime 7.0.4 patch and other speed enhancements.
<br>
<br>As of this writing, the 600 mb torrent was being actively seeded and had been posted to the usual suspects.
<br>
<br>Although it would seem that Apple has successfully locked down their newest builds, they have permitted the blending of versions to add new features. Apple has repeatedly stated that it will not update the developer editions of OSx86. Is this the mechanism that hacking community will implement to get around this stance?
