[QUOTE="sparkey, post: 1270474, member: 208837"] [b]Mmmm[/b] Given that the 2011 iMac was a major release that hosts Lion it still seems silly to me that you would not cover the whole of that product. I can understand Apple not extending to previous versions of iMac but to not cover those purchasers for the sake of a few weeks seems a bit odd. The cynical side of me feels that Apple thinks that early adopters are more likely to just stump up the cash. I vaguely remember something like this happening with a previous version of iOS. The early buyers of the iPhone that year got into a stink because Apple had drawn some arbitrary line in the sand and left them off the free upgrade path. From memory there was enough of a huff that Apple relented and included all buyers of that model iPhone. This seems like a similar situation to me, though I don't see anybody in a huff except me.
