10.6.2

Atom processor support still in Snow Leopard

AshMan says…

The latest build of Snow Leopard has retained its support for the Atom Processor – but the question which people are asking is will it be the last version?

Because of the support built into the operating system, many have taken advantage of it and transformed your Netbook into a Hackintosh. However word has been spreading around that Apple was attemping to stop “Hackintosh” users who were running OS X on Netbooks by blocking the Atom support.

Apple might be removing Atom support from Snow Leopard

Build 10.6.2 however still retains the Atom support, which means that Netbook OS X users can still live to see another day. This build is not final however, and in the final version this support can still be removed.

But until then happy “Hackintoshing”. Let me know if you are using a Netbook with Snow Leopard or any other version of OS X.

New MacBook Pros Coming Soon?

AshMan says…

Mac users may be in for  a treat, a good one for potential buyers and possibly a bad one for new MacBook Pro owners. According to Apple Technology site Applesana.es a new generation of MacBook Pros maybe coming soon.

Browsing through the configuration files of the latest build of Mac OS X, the most recent operating system out of Cupertino, two references can be found. It is reported that the 10.6.2 update (build 10C531) holds these new configuration files. These files make reference to MacBook Pro 6.1 and MacBook Pro 6.1b whilst the current generation MacBook Pros are designated 5.1 through to 5.5.

A refresh of the current MacBook Pros is not impossible following the recent update of the MacBook and iMac to i5 and i7 intel processors, even though the Pros were refreshed in June 2009.
