Hopefully it'll fix some of the issues I've been having recently with my MacBook Pro. Pos has been locking up randomly the last few days.

Big update for such a small changelog.

Safari definitely feels snappier!

This update just killed my iMac. I end up with the error detailed here: https://discussions....tart=0&tstart=0

No known fix for it yet.

EDIT: Trying the Combo Update workaround. I hope it works.

Funny... I thought they had dropped smart card support in 10.7.

Was able to update my hackintosh with no issue. Despite having to wait forever on DSL.

Hmm ... seems there's lots of people having the issue ... dunno if I should update now

Yea. It's the first time I've had an issue in all the years I've been using Macs. It's great that I can at least boot from the recovery partition, browse the web, and download another update to try and fix the issue.

I've not even installed it yet and Safari already feels snappier.

[David085]

I already installed on one of my Mac's my Mac mini need to install on a couple others ones later on

[NeoTrunks]

To anyone that hasn't already updated: STAY AWAY from Software Update. Download the combo updater.

Just updated my Macbook Pro through Software Update, no issues luckily.
I also do not install all that many 3rd party apps that integrate into the OS, as from reading that thread on the Apple forums, that seems like it may be the common thread with the people that are having issues with this update.
