I know the last couple of times I installed it, when the update app popped up I think there were a couple of security updates and one for the update to 10.2.8, along with a bunch of others you may or may not want. I would definitely do the security updates and the one for 10.2.8. Another thing to watch for is that some people running Jag on beige experience a problem with 10.2.8 where your monitor goes dark and it appears as though the computer is frozen. For this reason several people stay with 10.2.6. This problem has something to do with the built-in video on the beige. The only machine I run 10.2.8 on has a PCI video card from my B&W in it. YMMV Just a message from Doug... >> Apparently the going to 10.2.6 thing is just if you have used "archive & install", not a fresh install, I am told. I don't yet have any direct experience of that issue, nor the "sleeping sickness" one (knock on fake wood on my computer desk...) 8-) I should note that I have sleep turned off, that is, the disks are not actually set to spin down -- the monitor blanks after a while, & I've had no problems so far. -- Bill Swap page: <http://geocities.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/> -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
