While it seems to be the case that you can not buy a copy of the Intel version of MacOSX
That is all I was trying to point out.
that will change when 10.5 is release
Yes!
you will be able to in October.
I am already waiting for the Core 2 Duo Mini, and I time my purchases to coincide with OS X releases, this works fine for me. Christmas '08 will be good for Apple, but are they not missing half a year of easy pickings?
The other issue is that the licenses are only as good as the laws that support them.
Actually, Iam quite skeptical of "shrink wrap" and/or "click through" licenses. I feel like if I buy software, it is mine to own and do as I please. The idea that the vendor has more rights than me, and that I am buying a license rather than code is offensive. But I can articulate the vendors perspective, and do no like to see things misrepresented, especially to a mostly naive audience.
