Does this mean it's a problem isolated to Intel macs or that they're just not offering PPC updates?

I checked Software Update last night after seeing that the update was available but nothing came up as needing updating.

Hmm, today I can't turn AirPort on. Can't use my printer that's plugged into an APExpress.

Apparently untrue story

It appears that this story is untrue. Based on a search of Apple's support website, there appears to be no such update posted.

Too bad, because my Intel MacBook running 10.5.5 is the only one of my computers that can't seem to stay connected to our home Airport...
