My main question about the change to Intel is why the developer pack,
whatever it was, costs so much? What do you get for your $999? I was
expecting something free to download to developer members.
As others have said, they throw in a computer.
Keep in mind the Developer Transition System hardware is only on loan
and needs to be returned (by the end of 2006 I think) and has other
restrictions (basically, I think Apple is treating it like the normal
Seed hardware which is loaned, not sold, and has lots of
restrictions, like fixed location, etc).
Not that I can find any actual details on this currently, but if you read:
http://developer.apple.com/transitionkit.html
You will note it says "Use of a Developer Transition System", not
actual ownership of.
Personally, I prefer the Be hardware seeding (they gave me a free
box, and then another one later when they upgraded them), but then it
didn't work out that well for Be in the end unfortunately...
Peter.
