Pretty close what the SiSi release notes been lately...
Mac client was bad ? Noooooooooo, I can't believe it !
Using the mac client was sub-optimal before Tyrannis, it's pretty suicidal since Tyrannis (multiple effects disappeared, glitches, and a lot of crashes) ! They are removing the mac crash reporter, nice move, perhaps they were overloaded with automatic reports !
Mac client works for me, except the occasional crashes.
I haven't lost a ship yet.
Some more details about Character Services and other similar that (might/will/shall) get upgraded:
CCP Lemur Wrote:There will be a DevBlog about that topic to enlighten you all what we have been up to this summer. CCP Atlas was a busy man making your EVE experience smoother. In short: character services are services that don't need to be handled by the sol/location-nodes. So i.e when you browse the certificates the client will get this info from a character node without adding load to the node running the solar system. There are various other kinds of nodes that fir this patterns (market, PI, corp services ...). More details will come with the dev blog.

Probably not... Atleast on my machine the crash reporter has crashed itself every time it would have been needed (three).
Fixing the mail issue is wonderful

Uh. patch notes say it is "167297 to 174282". Current TQ client version is 167296, though.
Starts to feel like 1.0.5 is around the corner:

General Fixes
· Some players are experiencing a crash on startup problem since Tyrannis 1.0.4. This has been corrected. Users with this issue will have to manually download the patch from http://www.eveonline.com <http://www.eveonline.com> and apply it.
· When using an Alienware M17X laptop the client would crash while selecting a character. That has been fixed.
· A new command line switch has been added that will disable the lighting effects on Alienware machines that support it. It is “/nolightfx”.
That was SiSi build 176915
