DO NOT INSTALL THE NEW APPLE UPDATE if you have an intel imac.
i realize someone else recently asked about this, but i felt this subject header is a better alert...it will render your computer unbootable unless you restart in safe mode (holding shift right after the "ding" sound at startup)... You'll have to delete the printer startup items, specifically HD>System>Libary>StartupItems>Pr... to get it to work again.
Here is the full apple.com discussion: http://discussions.apple.com/thr…
...those new apple commercials should have the hipster's eyeballs hanging out of their sockets.

omg i am glad i wasnt the only one it happened to, last fucking night i got the auto updates and everything was fine and then it restarted...and never booted up, i restarted like 10000 times and everytime something else got messed up...i ended up putting the older os 10.4.5 and now its working better
NO THANKS TO THE FUCKING UPDATER APPLE!!!!

You really didn't have to reinstall everything and do what you did... that discussion board link via apple had the answers. Basically:
- remove your printer startup stuff (see prev. post)
- deactivate all unnecessary "login items" in the admin account under "system preferences"
...and yes, VOMIT.

Im so tired of all the issues my intel imac has had. They should have waited longer like they had originally planned.

just curious if this ever got fixed? or a new update has been made?

And people ask why I bought a new PB G4 last week when "I could've got an Intel"

apparently apple fucked up over 20 years ago when they decided to be greedy w/the technology... then in the late 90's when they were just about to call it quits... old Billy G. stepped in like a 'goof friend' would and refinanced apple's ass... and since that time apple hasn't presented shit outside of the iPod that's still worth the $ they charge - and now when they fuck up again... their supporters point the finger at Intel... and not APPLE for it's poor design and poor Q.C. habits: discuss....
