EGOvoruhk Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 That Box art looks like an Apple OS from the 90's . Why not just something like the previous SL Box Art: Because they're going to share shelf space, so they need to look different Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/180570-snow-leopard-has-arrived-at-best-buy/#findComment-1238486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregster1234 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I pre-ordered at Macmall. They offer it for $24.99 only. The cheapest I seen so far... Just in case you want to buy it personally, their stores will be open later at midnight from 12AM to 2PM just for the Snow Leopard release! Cool, huh?

Scottapotamas Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Its available on the apple Store Australia, but not the US one!!!

Anyway, its out and the local apple store is selling them by the dozen... only $39 AUS or $69 for a 5lic pac...

SticMAC™ Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 My upgrade package says on the barcode label: MAC OSX V10.6 RETAIL (1P) Part No MC223D/A Yet it still only cost CHF33.00(Swiss Francs) There's no more "verifying disc" when installing from DVD, both upgrade and fresh install works. Copying it to a USBHDD and then installing it doesn't work even on my MacBook. It also "phones home" when doing an upgrade, I let Little Snitch have its way seeing that it's legit! (2min away from complete install........ ) 10A432 it is! SticMAC ps, the 102km drive on my Motorcycle, to collect it at the distributors, was great!
