- Why are the permisions not installed correctly in the first place?
- Why is it called 'repair permissions', when it actually runs a slew of other tests like fsck?

Did the battery problem really exist ? There's no official word from Apple, just a lot of speculation from disgruntled customers. Batteries do wear out.
My iBook battery died very quickly soon after installing 10.2.4, but I use the machine daily both on and off mains and regularly have uptimes of > 30 days because I sleep the machine instead of turning it off. I suppose that's probably a little hard on the battery.
That said, since I bought my new battery (AU$275) I've been running Linux and I'm wary of reinstalling OSX.

New computers on the shelf, as an example, are at 10.2.3. This means that 10.2.6 is small over 10.2.5 only...but if you buy a new computer today, or you haven't yet moved to 10.2.5, and you proceed to install 10.2.6, you will see a much longer list.
What part of 'perhaps' in the parent caused you confusion?
