I mentioned a new feature of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard earlier this week, and today I have another one for you that enhances the Airport menu.

Hold down the Option key while clicking the Airport icon in your menubar to view detailed statistics about the network you’re currently connected to, such as the Channel, Security Settings and more. While this probably holds little value for the average user, it can be quite valuable for network admins and people who just love to know everything about what’s going on with their Mac at every moment.
