Apple Thunderbolt Software Update causing sporadic errors, frozen boot screens

Apple Thunderbolt Software Update causing sporadic errors, frozen boot screens

Software updates can be a bit of a mixed bag — just ask anyone who’s ever been on the other side of a botched firmware install. While many users react with itchy trigger fingers to download the goods, the more prudent (read: hardened) prefer to hold off in the event potentially crippling bugs creep on out. So, it comes as no great surprise that Apple’s recently issued Thunderbolt update version 1.2 — intended to add support for a Gigabit Ethernet Adapter — is subjecting a portion of frustrated users to unexpected errors and frozen boot screens. Currently, the only officially sanctioned remedy seems to be a fresh install of OS X Lion. So, if you haven’t already taken the plunge on this minor feature add-on, you’d be well advised to wait it out.

PlayStation websites, PSN suffer outage: Anonymous claims responsibility, Sony claims ‘sporadic maintenance’

Been having trouble with the PlayStation Network or any Sony website today? You’re not alone. A widespread outage that started in Europe last night has now spread to North America, and none other than Anonymous is claiming responsibility for the attacks. As you can see above, however, Sony is singing a slightly different tune, and says simply that “sporadic maintenance” may cause PSN service to be interrupted throughout the day. Because, really, you can never do too much “sporadic” maintenance.
