[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1453885, member: 56379"] Let's look at this situation a bit more closely. Apple is VERY VERY VERY secretive about how they handle their business (releases of new products or OS versions). If you purchased this computer BEFORE ML was released…then almost no one (including Apple Store employees) would have known any of the exact specific details related to how the free ML upgrade program would work. Maybe this Apple Store employee was making some educated guess's…but in all honesty…they would have no specific concrete knowledge on how a free ML upgrade would work BEFORE ML was released! Apple Store employees would not have known: - When exactly ML would have been released. - If new computer buyers would get a free upgrade to ML. - If new computer buyers did get a free ML upgrade…how many days they would have to redeem the free upgrade. This has nothing to do with Apple being different post Steve Jobs. It's simply a miscommunication between two individuals…and possibly some unrealistic expectations. And again…since this computer purchase was BEFORE ML was released…any details on how the free ML upgrade would work were totally unknown at the time this computer was purchased! - Nick [/QUOTE]
