I'm finally getting ready to make the jump from PC to Mac but have been reading about the new OS that Apple is expecting to be releasing - rumoured to be June '09 (?). Two questions:
1) Is it worth waiting for Apple to ship their Macbooks with this OS before buying one?
2) Will Apple switch to the new OS immediately for new machines or will it lag by a few months? (I'm based in UK)
I read the following quote here, but am not so sure: 'As Daniel Jalkut of Red Sweater Software put it, "Pricing is difficult, because it's hard to ask customers for money to upgrade to something which has few, if any, new features. I won't be surprised if Apple releases the update as a free upgrade, or charges very little. Remember, it will come with all new Macs from the day it is available."'
