    Updating: Delta vs Combo for OS

    So, I've long long heard that downloading updates vs Software Update is far better, and for some unknown reason?, leads to less issues later. Somehow I've translated that into download the Combo... I don't know how that translation occurred. Is there a difference between using downloaded...

    universal print order option

    Hey, I'm wondering how to set the option to print in reverse order, universally. I recently reinstalled OSX 10.4.6, and then had to get a new printer -- old one broke. Somehow, I had that setting before. And I haven't a clue how I did it; but I loved it! I never had to check the reverse order in...
