I downloaded an update from Apple for the ATI 2600 at around 7pm (est.) this evening. I was wondering if any iMac owners got the same treatment.

According to AppleInsider...

Owners of Apple's high-end aluminum iMacs, which also use Radeon HD 2600 XT chipsets, are not affected by the upgrade.

So how did I manage to get it?

Thanks!
 
Wait a second...ahhhhhhhhh i got it! I had completely rebooted the system to zero, I reinstalled OSX and the lot and then I ran the software update. I guess it didn't catch on the first couple of times and it showed up in the list today! Makes sense, no? :D
 
You never received the firmware update before you reinstalled OS X? Because you only have to install it once and that's it, even if you reinstall OS X.
 
Ya, waayyy before I reinstalled everything, I did get the 1.0 update. Hmm, things are getting a little messed up. Is their anyway to find out what I downloaded?

Are you sure you're not confusing it with the Leopard Graphics Update 1.0?

Edit: Open System Preferences > Software Update > Installed Updates? I'm not on OS X right now so I don't know exactly.
 
Haha, well looky looky, it is Leopard Graphics Update 1.0 It was installed today, 7 days after the other updates were installed, weird. Thanks for your help MacReloaded :cool:
