News for Saturday, 12 July 2003

On the developers' site, a security update is available, which fixes the screensaver security breach under OS X we talked about a few days ago. This allowed someone to take control of the machine without any password.
It should be available through system update panel in the next few days.

here are some informations we have just received concerning the G5 :
- Keyboard and mouse will not be ones from eMac, they will be specially dedicated for G5
- Displays will have a slight change, there will no longer be horizontal stripes (as shown on Mac4ever)
- Mono-Processor G5 will be ready for the 1st week of August and the 3rd for the Dual-Processors
- Superdrive will be a Sony, and shall not be bridled

Thanks to Delaf for the info :
