[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 892933, member: 56379"] As far as the inside information...maybe I do, maybe I don't!;D As far as the $169 10.6 Mac Box set. Of course my logic makes sense. Not only are Tiger users encouraged to buy the "10.6 box set"...they [b]MUST[/b] purchase it because it contains the "full install DVD" of 10.6!!! If someone does not have 10.5 install disks...then they [b]must[/b] purchase the "10.6 Box Set" The $29.95 "10.6" is an "[b]updater[/b]" disk...[b]NOT[/b] a full install. [b]Again...there are two main paths to OS 10.6:[/b] 1. If you're a 10.4 user...then you need to purchase the $169 10.6 Box Set. 2. If you're a 10.5 user...then all you need to purchase is the $29.95 10.6 update disk. Of course if you're a 10.5 user, and you want the full install of 10.6 + iLife 09 + iWork 09...then these folks could buy the $169 10.6 Box Set as well. Finally...if you're a 10.4 user...you could purchase 10.5 @ $129 + 10.6 upgrade disk @ $29.95 which comes to roughly $160 bucks. [b]Surprise, surprise[/b] that's only $9.00 cheaper than the 10.6 Mac Box Set...so of course folks are going to buy the box set instead...because if you go this route...you're basically getting iWork & iLife 09 for just $9.00 more!!! Disagree if you want...but on Friday or Saturday when folks start getting their 10.6 items...you will see that I was correct back on Tuesday!;D - Nick [/QUOTE]
