Oops, I though this was the Thunderbolt update. Oh, well, it was still a crash, anyway.

Well, I'm glad they got that fixed for the MacBook Air, because I just crashed my 2011 iMac (12,2) this morning when I disconnected power from my Belkin Thunderbolt dock. Pulled the dock power out before I disconnected the Thunderbolt cable, and in…

The update shows as 17 MB on my iMac that was upgraded to Lion, but my 13" MacBook Air that shipped with Lion has a 59.4 MB update. And the new build # is Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1 (11B2118).
