I noticed the little surprise just now. I'm going to download the Combo Updater so that I have both the Intel and PPC versions. And to think I just configured some iMacs at work and cloned all of them with all of the updates prior to this. Now that smarts.

the combo updater is universal, you mean?
EDIT: just checked - only for server, the combo is universal. for client version, you still have to choose ppc or intel. this'll change with leopard only, i guess.

Sorry, I should have clarified. I'm downloading both the PPC version and the Intel version so that I have it for installs at work. I'm only installing the PPC version on my iMac G5.

Just updated. 164MB Combo. All seems OK.

But the startup was scarily slow with a second restart. And I got a long hang on the "Starting MacOSX" screen with the blue bar. Stayed all white for too long to be comfortable, and then the desktop appeared with bits of the menu bar at a time!!

Hm. I always reboot twice after updating. The first one's been slow for me as well. Second was mighty quick.

I think since 10.4.6, the initial bootup after an OS update has always been a little slower than usual. Nothing out of the ordinary, though. Probably rebuilding kernel caches or something.
