Apple made a token gesture towards its Valentines yesterday, releasing OS X 10.4.5. Not quite spectacular though (unless there are little pink hearts in the About… box, I didn’t check) — seems like the most important fixes are for Intel Mac users.

[02/15] My very first kernel panic! But second reboot went just fine.

Bumped Intel PowerBook specs means that the Intel iBook and maybe even the mini might well be Core Duo too (in which case I guess I’d rip my iMac G5 open and stick a mini inside):

According to Intel’s price listing for the Core Solo and Core Duo, Apple stands to save only $32 dollars by opting to include a 1.67GHz Core Solo processor, rather than a 1.67GHz Core Duo, in any of its forthcoming products. The chips reportedly cost $209 and $241, respectively. On the other hand, Intel’s 2.16GHz Core Duo processor costs approximately $217 more than the 2.0GHz model, somewhat justifying Apple’s $300 upgrade fee from 2.0GHz to 2.16GHz on the MacBook Pro.

CreamMonkey 0.2 is the Safari equivalent of GreaseMonkey, allowing you to create (or download) Javascript files that modify any given website’s pages however you like. Can’t tell what it’s worth — I never used GreaseMonkey and won’t try CreamMonkey any time soon.
