> Ever since upgrading to Snow Leopard, the one remaining 32-bit niggle I have

> and released v1.2 of its famous application notification system with, among 
> other things, 64-bit support.
> 
> While most of the updates in 1.2 are "behind the scenes," the biggest 
> user-facing improvement is in the upgrade to 64-bit. What this means is that 
> for Snow Leopard users, selecting the Growlpreference pane does not require 
> Preferences.app to re-launch in 32-bit compatibility mode.
> 
> In addition to the Growl preference pane, GrowlMail and GrowlSafari have been 
> updated to 64-bit and are now Snow Leopard compatible. Further, the Growl 
> framework has been re-written in Cocoa dropping support for the Carbon-based 
> API.
> 
> You can see the full list of changes over at Growl's version history page. 
> Growl users should have received a notification to download the update. 
> Alternatively, you can head over to Growl's homepage and click "download" to 
> get your ticket to the notification express.
