One MAJOR issue that 10.5.7 did not address with my MBP is: when the battery completely drains it just shuts off suddenly instead of going to sleep. If it drains down while already in sleep mode it wakes up with a grayed out screen and I need to restart holding down the power button. So in either scenario I lose whatever I was working on.

This really suxs. It could be related to the fact that the battery is aftermarket though. I just don't know?

Well, one other thing happening after this "update" is that my MBP now connects to another wifi network in our home randomly that it never connected to before, and therefore, my MBP does not have the WEP password for it in the Keychain. So it looks like I'm connected with full bars in the menu bar but am not. Many times I now have to manually choose my preferred network which is pure n as opposed to my wife's g network.

This update sux. Either people see no difference, a very slight possibly placebo induced speed increase, or are having issues. There better be a few more minor updates to get the bigger issues right.

700MB + update and we get this?

I had a similar issue a while ago with my MBP, but it was the result of a firmware update. Has it been ages since your last firmware update?

This update bricked the MacBook of a friend of mine. But it's the only problem I've heard from my IRL contacts.

My firmware is up to date.

I had NO problems with the update.

Still not bothering, I don't see the benefits vs. the problems I keep reading.
