[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1523688, member: 83420"] I think you may be confusing "upgrade" with "update". If you had been moving from Lion (10.7.x) to Mountain Lion (10.8.x) that would be an "upgrade" for which you would need to pay. In your case, Mountain Lion was pre-installed (therefore already paid for) and what I believe you are doing is "updating" from an earlier version (say, 10.8.3) to the latest which is 10.8.4. There is no charge for this or any subsequent "updates' (say to 10.8.5). But when Maverick becomes available (10.9.0), then that is an "upgrade" to a new OS and you would have to pay for that. Hope this explains things for you. Ian [/QUOTE]
