The new developer’s Snow Leopard build, build 10A394, is interesting in that you don’t have to reinstall your entire OS to get it—you can just grab it via Software Update . Dock Expose finally shows up as well. The OS is pretty stable for everyday use (minus plugins and some apps that don’t quite work), so if you’re adventurous and don’t mind having incompatibilities for some stuff, you can probably find this online somewhere

The features, as reported by VG247: • Player reputations (“he’s a good guy” so I know to play with him) • Grief reporting (“she hit me!” screengrabs sent to Sony) • Background patch downloading (no longer stare at status bars, nice!) • Simultaneous HDMI and digital audio output (handy) But what about these updates isn’t just playing catch-up?
