I have a G4 mirrored door Mac running 10.4.7. I have "automatic updates" checked for weekly. So when I got a message that it wanted to install Safari 4 a couple days ago, I assumed that was a good idea and did it. Safari 4 on my machine has slowed everything down to a snail's pace...and of course if you go back to the Apple site and look at system requirements, it says it requires 10.4.11. But if it AUTOMATICALLY updates everything, you would think it would say to itself, "Oh, oh...this system doesn't support Safari 4. I won't install it." But no. Also, looking at system requirements for my Mac, there doesn't seem to be any reason it wouldn't install 10.4.11, but when I run "software update" it says there are no updates necessary, even though the finder says it's 10.4.7 and 10.4.11 is out there. I am not foolhardy enough to override it and install 10.4.11 on my own, nor am I keeping Safari 4--I just copied the older version to a USB drive and will replace 4 when I get home. Just a warning to others!!
