OS X 10.5.2

I’m sure by now you’ve heard the wonderful news, 10.5.2 is finally out. Yay! I’ll spare you the boring technical details, but holy crap did 10.5.2 jack my boot time. When I first installed Leopard my boot time went from 33 seconds to 54 seconds, ridiculous! Anyhow, after the 10.5.2 update it was taken my Macbook Pro a full 2 minutes to boot, for shame!

So yeah, I reset my PRAM and emptied out my caches and got things back to around 54 seconds. Just keep that in mind when you install the update. Please note, normally I don’t care about boot times that much, but I’m bored out of my mind right now.

p.s. TUAW is reporting that 10.5.2 makes your WoW run faster

    Not only does WoW run fast on my Mac, but it actually runs faster, smoother, and with shorter load times then it ever did on my desktop. Pretty impressive for an integrated graphics card and a gig of ram.
