Apple Unveils OS X 10.8.3, Adds Boot Camp Support for Windows 8, Webcam Gift Card Redemption

Apple took the wraps off of OS X 10.8.3 this afternoon, which adds Windows 8 support and support for large hard drives (3TB or larger) to Boot Camp, the ability to redeem gift cards for the Mac App Store via your Mac's built-in camera, an update to Safari, and some bug fixes and performance enhancements.

The most notable options here are full support for booting Windows 8 using Boot Camp and support for large hard drives once you're booted into Windows, both especially useful for those of us who use multiple OSes on our Mac hardware. The option to redeem iTunes gift cards using your webcam isn't necessarily new?it was introduced in iTunes 11 back in November?but the update now allows you to redeem iTunes gift cards for the Mac App Store as well.

To grab the update, run Software Update on your OS X system (Apple Menu > Software Update) or grab it from the links below. You can read more about the update at Apple's KnowledgeBase here.
