Err.. no, we don't know that. Some of us are having problems after
updating to 10.5.5. For example, I have gone from upwards of ten
kernel panics requiring restarts per day with 10.5.5 to zero, nada,
none after downgrading to 10.5.4. I'm still using the same apps,
still using the same hardware -- and my system is no longer crashing.
I was ready to pitch this useless piece of shit off the balcony until
I downgraded to a stable version. There's something about 10.5.5 that
is not stable with some older Macs that still meet the hardware
requirements set out by Apple. That's why I've suggested to Bill that
he start over and not upgrade past 10.5.4. He won't be able to use
Software Update to do that. It may solve his ongoing problems, it may
not. We won't know unless he can find the time (and the desire) to
give it a try.
