Sean,
Apple has always charged for new versions of the operating system, so
they will probably charge for Snow Leopard. And I suspect there will
be more changes "under the hood"f to improve performance. I also
think they will add/fix things that aren't exactly new features.

Do we think they are going to charge for this release? I don't feel
that they should because stability be it more should already have
been optimized for the regular version of Leopard. It's like all the
upgrades to Windows which should also be free. remember Win 98 and
Win SE? Windows SE should have been a free upgrade, but they charged
for what was supposed to be optimization.

wow. I'm amused, lol. I'm not so sure what I think about snow
leopard though, why snow leopard? I think that could get confused
with leopard too easily.
Snow Leopard is going to basically be an optimized version of
Leopard, restricted to Intel only machines and sporting few if any
new features. It's goal is to improve quality of the OS, and I
think that's great, as well as making the Snow Leopard name
appropriate.
