Did a quick try of a fresh Squeak4.2-10382-alpha on your latest 5.8b7, MacPro OS X 10.6.4, NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT graphics card

Resizing the Squeak window still results in graphic artifacts that go away when stopped resizing.

Tried 'Update Squeak', got 'Error: unmatched string quote' in scanner while processing update.nice.150.mcm and snapshotting methods.

Open Monticello Browser from World menu.
+Repository select HTTP, Accept. click 'Open', with http://www.squeaksource.com/ selected.
Get 'Error: Could not access http://www.squeaksource.com/'

http://www.squeaksource.com/ is accessible from Safari.
