Why was the "bug" in the later versions of 3.5.x?
I have not kept up with this thread, since I am not a Mac person, but I 
have 2 friends that are and I keep them up on the availability of the 
new versions.

I have been using 3.5.7 till 3.6.4 came out.  So would they if they took 
my advice.

Also, this email seemed to have been delayed since you talk about 3.6.4 
coming out next week, when it has been out since the 5th or 6th, and I 
just got this email.
