It is weird that it wasn't released yesterday with the Office v.X update. All the rumor sites are saying that it is good to go, so I don't understand why Apple won't release it.
Usually some of the people with ADC accounts comment on when the update was pulled off of the ADC website, which usually indicates that it has gone GM and is going to be released to the general public soon.
Anybody have a ADC account? Are the 10.1.5 Dev Seeds still up?
Apple's servers seem to be down for the moment - neither the OS X home page nor the Software Update registers any kind of connection. 10.1.5 is probably a few minutes away *knocks on wood*
MS pleads with them to hold the release until IE 5 update is ready.
Apple relents and says they will put it out.
MS releases Office update ahead of 10.1.5 even though it needs the Mac update to exploit all of the new goodies. (AA, etc.)
MS notifies Apple that the Office version, instead of solving 1000 bugs has instead added at least that many more. The current version of 10.1.5 will cripple Office. (AA doesn't work, scrolls even slower than before, format pallette would fly around the screen ala windows screensaver, etc.) MS would tell the press OS X created the problem.
By the time Apple can update 10.1.5, IE is released. (End of June)
Of course this is crap, but I am getting bored waiting for the OS update.

Nobody ever said we were getting it today.
