Comment: how about WHAT cricial bugs were fixed? and WHAT hardware was impacted.

I think people deserve to know why and to see if their system is impacted, needs the update.

Maybe I have one that is not.

I don't know my Boot Camp version in Lion shows 4.0? Maybe this is a update for Snow Leopard?

So how do I install 3.3? I'm running Windows 7 on a MacBook Pro, with Lion on the Mac side.

Lion installs should already be running the latest drivers, but, in Windows run Apple Software Update to check

I would also know what was changed/fixed/added. I had just finished upgrading my Win7 x64 installation when I got the Apple Software Update message about Boot Camp 3.3. I downloaded and installed it, rebooted, and checked the Boot Camp icon to see if any of the options and settings were changed (I was hoping to use my Magic Trackpad in Windows with all the gestures I use now). Unfortunately, everything looks the same as with Boot Camp 3.2.
