 Yeah, but if people were willing to read that, then they probably would
 have read the Jaguar install Read Me that CLEARLY tells you to make sure
 you have the latest firmware BEFORE installing.

Yes, however there are always those who will read the instructions only AFTER things have gone wrong!!!!


That's because the Mac USED to be "the computer for the rest of us" and DIDN'T need BIOS/Firmware updates like Windoze machines. The updates started because of the clones & CHRP required accessible BIOS/Firmware. With Apple killing the clones and CHRP, I don't understand why they don't go back to the original setup. Unless it is to keep the options open for running Mac OS on Intel chips.
