Just loaded 2.1.4 and launched windows 7 on my MacBook Pro and it's definitely faster than 2.1.2. Good job Sun!

I didn't see any fixes for OSX in the change log, I hope that whatever was fixed fixes an issue I'm having trying to sync my blackberry to the Blackberry Desktop Manger. I can communicate with the BB and back it up to my Mac but I can't upgrade the OS on the BB. Every time I start the upgrade process, the connection drops.

Noticeable on Fedora 10 guest too. Mystery fix is good mystery fix. :)

No. Don't even know what "updating guest additions" is?
