Apple dont seem to be admitting anything, but I am certain there is a bug 
in 10.4.6 which affects Classic on Powerbooks plus a few other things 
(iLife install DVD doesnt work). It does also seem to be associated with 
Airport or made worse by wireless installs: Software Update recently 
picked up an Airport upgrade (probably for 10.4.2) which appears to have 
been included in the 10.4.6 Combo update, but may be worth knowing about 
if using an earlier version of the system.

Reinstalling 10.4.0 cures the problems I have seen, but upgrading using 
the combined update off Software Update simply recreates the instability. 
One theory is that a more solid result is achieved by doing progressive 
upgrades from 10.4. Upgrading straight off the broadband link rather than 
via Airport may help sidestep whatever the wireless issue is.

The other common problem that may stretch its tentacles in here is the 
difficulty awaking from sleep? Lots of solutions offered though I have 
never found one that works totally.
