Although I got the email yesterday, Safari 6.0.4 doesn't show up for me
yet in Software Update.

Xcode and iPhoto updates currently coming down.

Fortunately the Xcode one is only 78 MB, not the whole thing.

Try hitting command-R while the MAS' Software Update page is open.

Not sure what you mean by "MAS'" but launching Software Update and
hitting command-R got me the download.

Thanks.

MAS = Mac App Store, into which the old Software Update.app has been
rolled as of OS X 10.8.

As 10.1 would be the same as 10.100000000, they've already been there,
it was called Puma.

Completely non-serious, other than to point out that many people are
still using systems for which "Software Update" is the appropriate
place to go.

Yeah, I've been through this "discussion" before. If you think after
10.9 they'd issue a 10.10, I doubt that prediction.

apple released 10.4.10 followed by 10.4.11, so they will most likely
release a 10.10.x.

I never claimed the number "10" would never be used. And as I've said
I've read this discussion more than once.
