Bill, Doesn't seem to be a problem, I had an older version of Panther on a computer I had given a couple about a year ago, so they needed an update and I was dreading all the incremental upgrades and security patches. I went to the Apple website and they had listed the Combination 10.3.7 which in the explanation said it included all the previous updates for the O.S. and security patches. I downloaded the 95 meg (I think) file, went to their house and in a few minutes had all going just fine. Since then there has been another security patch, and it may now be included in the combination file.
