Apple TV 2.0 Update Feedback
I've added 2 Apple TV owner's notes on the v2.0 update to a previous page (I'd about forgotten about until yesterday) on Apple TV User Reports/Tips, etc..

I've added 8 more reports to the Feedback on 10.5.2/Leopard Graphics Update 1.0 page. Included are notes from a Sonnet Tango (USB 2.0/FW400) PCI card user (w/USB Hub), another note on the MacBook Pro/Clamshell use Issue, Airport Disk Improvements, Another ATI X8xx/30in Cinema Display User (problems), More WoW user notes (display/desktop artifacts), General install problem (unknown mac model/details), iDVD 08 notes and some updates to previous posts for more details/missing info.

More 2008 Mac Pro owner feedback
I've updated the 2008 Mac Pro owner feedback page with 2 more ATI 2600 equipped owners - one noting the previous pram/smc reset tips helped with restart on wake (so far), the other just got his (only 4hrs of use) and said he'd swapped in a 10.5.2 updated drive from his G5 and was booting from that (APM format drive) - as a FYI I mentioned that APM disks (per apple and some readers in the past) will prevent firmware updates from installing (if/when apple releases any firmware updates for the 2008 Mac Pros in the future).

PowerMac G5 Coolant Leaks page updated
Another leaking system report has been added to the previous page of PowerMac G5 Coolant Leaks. (In this case a Dual 2.5GHz G5 model bought in 2004 he thought.) Didn't note if a Delphi or Panasonic LCS, but I suspect the former. (Page includes links to photos, some DIY repairs if caught before leaks damage PS, logic board, etc..)
