AppleWatch: Apple’s OS X Leopard to ship Oct. 26

in Apple

Apple’s OS X Leopard will ship Oct. 26. If you buy a Mac without 10.5 Leopard after October 1 you can upgrade for $9.95 until December 29, 2007. Too bad I got my Macbook around June. Otherwise it retails for $129 for a single-user license, $199 for the family license. And I hear you can get a $20 discount if your preorder it from Amazon.
