If I buy a new Powerbook very soon... will it have Panther installed?

I was looking on the Apple store and it seemed they were going to charge me nearly £100 for it... and other online shops seem to only ship them with 10.2!

I don't have a problem with buying upgrades etc just seems a bit harsh to spend around 2 grand only to get an old OS!!!

Perhaps this is not the case or will change soon...

Hmmm

Cheers for that... I hope so. Just when I looked on the apple store it didn't seem that way. No doubt I will get it anyway if I have to pay or not!

Ahhh...

Just worked out what happend... if you go on the Apple Store and look at buying Panther on its own etc and then totally forget you had ever done that... then a month or two later go on there to order a Powerbook... it remembers your last order and you end up thinking they are trying to sell it to you seperately...

Ooops... this is the reason I don't post on forums!
