weird. i swear when i was reading about it in the times it said like $170 to go from tiger to snow leopard and that the $30 only applied to people going from leopard to snow leopard because it was essentially just a refinement to leopard.

That's technically true -- but when you buy a new copy of Mac OS X from Apple, you get the full version (not an "upgrade" version, as with, e.g., Windows), so nothing precludes you from installing Snow Leopard if you only have Tiger. It technically violates your Snow Leopard license, but Apple doesn't make you register for Mac OS X, and Mac OS X doesn't have serial numbers, so it's not like Apple would ever find out. |
