Hoje a Promais – Lojas Mac Portugal recebeu nova remessa do Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Depois de servidas todas as encomendas desse produto (versão upgrade), ainda restaram algumas unidades para stock. Pude assim finalmente fazer também essa actualização no meu Mac. Entretanto, aproveitei para tirar uma foto aos gatos que ainda ficaram por cá…

Reader Ian Michael Smith's desktop is sleek, smooth, and seriously impressive—with custom themes and icons for Finder, the Dock, and Geektool. Who knew OS X could look this good?
We had earlier leaked GM copy of Snow Leopard by HOTiSO, here comes RETAIL upgrade disc by RiSE group. Btw, according to some sources with this upgrade disc you can do a clean install of Snow Leo - means, you don’t need to have 10.5.x Leopard installed previously.
Description: Mac OS X version 10.6 “Snow Leopard” is the seventh major release of Mac OS X, Apple’s desktop and server operating system. The upgrade to Mac OS X focuses on improving performance, efficiency and reducing its overall memory footprint compared to its predecessor Mac OS X v10.5 “Leopard”, rather than new end-user features. This is also the first Mac OS release dating back to System 7.1.2 that does not support the PowerPC architecture, as Apple now intends to focus on its current line of Intel-based products.

What’s new:
Release name: APPLE.SNOW.LEOPARD.V10.6.UPGRADE.RETAIL.MAC.OSX.ISO-RiSE
Size: 5.20 GB

Download: HOTFiLE, Torrent Search
If the online chatter is to be believed, Apple's very soon to be released Snow Leopard has in its code new protection for fighting malware. According to the picture above corroborated by other online reports, a DMG downloaded by Safari was checked by the OS and found to contain the "RSPlug.A" Trojan. The system promptly suggests you eject the disk image to avoid damage. Should Apple really be treading down this path, it begs the question of how often and how comprehensive / aggressive the company will be updating its antivirus logs. If nothing else, it's a certainly a notable symbolic gesture that the one-time underdog might be gaining enough market share to catch the attention of the darker side of the internet -- and all of a sudden, David Puddy isn't looking nearly as bad.
