But you bought your Mac after 8th June... I think current Leopard users who don't qualify for the really cheap price get it for something like £30...I think... |

Amazingly, just £19, but like Linux_user, I paid just under 8 quid. Excellent news! Looking forward to next week now! |

Hmm. It's not up on the academic order web site yet. Usually things do show up there for pre-order shortly before they're available at retail. Maybe they aren't bothering with pre-orders at all this time. Jon |

Not on Apple’s main store page either. |

I'm guessing at that price they'll just have loads made ready for the queues. |

Just seen this over at engadget can't wait. How many people who aren't usually early adopters of new OS's going to get Snow Leopard? Perhaps because of it's low price. |

For £8 - £20 it's hard to justify not getting it, especially if it offers better performance. Compare this to people paying £70-£180 for Vista SP3 with marginal performance benefits. |
