Apple has released an update to Jaguar, bringing Mac OS X to version 10.2.1. The update comes less than a month after Jaguar was released, and addresses several areas, including security, networking, and more peripheral support. From the installation notes in Software Update Control Panel:

The 10.2.1 Update delivers enhancements and improvements to the following applications, technologies and components: Mail, Image Capture, Help Viewer, graphics, printing, networking, Rendezvous, Kerberos, USB, FireWire, SCSI device compatibility and includes additional Digital Hub peripheral device support.

For detailed information on this Update, please visit http://www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n107036.

The Mac Observer Spin:

We are happy to see Apple release an update of this nature so swiftly after the release of Jaguar. Some Mac users get tense with frequent updates, but we see them as a demonstration of Apple's commitment to dealing with issues that crop up in Mac OS X as they arrive. This is especially true with security related issues, such as the improvements to Kerberos.
