Moments ago, Apple released its Mac OS X 10.6.5 update to its customer-base. Fixes in the point-upgrade include:

• improve reliability with Microsoft Exchange servers • address performance of some image-processing operations in iPhoto and Aperture • address stability and performance of graphics applications and games • resolve a delay between print jobs • address a printing issue for some HP printers connected to an AirPort Extreme • resolve an issue when dragging contacts from Address Book to iCal • address an issue where dragging an item from a stack causes the Dock to not automatically hide • resolve an issue with Wikipedia information not displaying correctly in Dictionary • improve performance of MainStage on certain Mac systems • resolve spacing issues with OpenType fonts • improve reliability with some Bluetooth braille displays • resolve a VoiceOver issue when browsing some web sites with Safari 5

The OS update is — purportedly — the first step in a three-stage software rollout due this week from Apple; iTunes 10.1 and iOS 4.2 are also supposed be released. Hit the “Software Update” section in OS X to get the new goodies. Enjoy.
