Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.2 update

An update for Apple's latest generation operating system, Mac OS X Leopard, is already in the works. Maceinstein has published screenshots, revealing major improvements in the stacks feature which can now present the contents of a stack in list view.

The update will also bring several bug fixes but will weight more than 300MB.

ThinkSecret ends operations

After almost ten years of publication, Nicholas Ciarelli decided to stop publishing on ThinkSecret upon settlement with Apple Inc. which had filed a suit against the site in 2004 and lost it. ThinkSecret then counter attacked and is now claiming to be a winner on this settlement as he could keep his sources secret.

ThinkSecret has been a pretty accurate site, though it had lost a bit of its magic during 2007.
