Apple [AAPL] has released its update to Mac OS X, Snow Leopard 10.6.2, unfortunately it looks like it no longer supports Intel Atom processors.

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 fixes about 40 bugs, which is good news for Mac users, but not Hackintosh users who are running Mac OS X on their netbooks, here is what popular Hackintosh user Stellarola had to say about it.
