Sorry if this is in the wrong section. OK so I ordered my MBP on 7/31/07. I was on vacation from 8/5/07 to 8/11/07. When I got home, I watched the keynote from the 7th and Steve Jobs said that all computers shipping on or after the 7th would come with iLife 08. My MBP had shipped one 8/10/07. So I called apple just to make sure. The guy from apple said that iLife 08 should come on my machine, but if it doesn't, he said, I should go here to get it for free. The wierd thing is, the site he referred me to says that I have to have purchased my machine on or after the 7th. So now I don't know what to do. :[

I am in a similar position, mine was ordered on 27th July, but i also ordered iWork 06 with mine.

My order was held because of iwork 08 but i didnt get the email until today (a week after launch) so i updated and its now going to be shipped at the end of the week.

I have been told it should come with iLife 08 but i was also told if it isnt, i'd have to pay £10ukp to upgrade.

I think, given the delay because of iWork, i should be ok.


A guy here in work ordered his on 30th July and recieved it on the 9th, his came with iLife 06 but when he called up about it, they refunded him £45ukp and told him to order it at full price (so it works out at £10ukp)

I orded my MBP on the Thursday before Tuesday's announcement. It came yesterday, with iLife 06, and iWork 06* installed, but included iLife 08 and iWork 08* on disc with the documentation.

Take from that what you will.

*Trial obviously.
