It would be nice to see Apple acknowledge its faithful, the ones who did not desert when times were not so good for them. My first Mac was a Fat Mac, (512k) close to twenty years ago. Macs ever since.
A price of say $69 for Panther for those who have bought two previous OS Xs, or say $99 for those who have one, I think not unreasonable; would help Apple reestablish its street cred with it's following. It would reduce my cost of OS X from $387 to $327; not exactly a 'gift'.
Speaking of which, I bought my first mac and my first home computer when 10.0 was released. I bought it for my Pismo which only had OS 9 on it. As someone new to macs, I found OS 9 unpleasant but immediately liked OS X.
Even now, are we OS Xers still considered early adopters? Aren't most mac users still using OS 9?
