Apple released the 26.4 update today and I installed it on all my devices – the update was a pretty decent size on all the devices which points to many parts of the operating system updated. The first thing I noticed after installing is how the responsiveness of the operating system has improved – from the interface of the shell through to the bundled applications. I can’t help but get the feeling that they’ve spent a good amount of time fixing up a lot of things that should have been addressed before it was launched.

The first thing I noticed in terms of the under the hood change has been the update of the System Firmware Version and OS Loader Version from 13822.81.10 to 18000.101.7, the firmware and driver of Wi-FI has been upgraded from version 23.41.8.0.41.51.201 to 23.50.20.0.41.51.208, the Wi-Fi stack has been upgrade from IO80211_driverkit-1540.16 to IO80211_driverkit-1555.23, I’ve also had a look through the ‘System Information’ and pretty much everything has been updated in some way. As for Safari being updated, I’ll write a longer post after work tonight when I have time but I thought it would be best to get my initial thoughts posted on my blog.
