One day after Steve Jobs unveiled a redesigned iMac, Apple released a security update for it.
Apple released very little information about the 5.1 MB release, saying only that the security update “provides important bug fixes.”
The company also noted in a short advisory that the fixes are recommended for 20-inch and 24-inch iMac models with 2.0 GHz, 2.4 GHz or 2.8 GHz processors.
Apple did not supply any information on what bugs are being fixed. Hopefully more information will be released. If you have anything to add, let me know in the comments.
The company also issued a new version of its software that is designed to enable Intel-based Macs to run Windows XP.
Still in beta, Boot Camp is billed as being able to enable users to install Windows XP or 32-bit Windows Vista without moving their Mac data.
An Apple advisory noted that Boot Camp V1.4 adds updated graphics drivers, an improved driver installer, improved international keyboard support, updated Windows Help and Apple remote pairing.

In the mean time until Boot Camp is out of beta, you can use Parallels on the Mac to run Windows apps. Check out ‘coherence mode’.
