Whoooooa!!!! Michelle, the release is __after__ Friday at midnight! Per my conversation with the Computer Store/ PowerMax/ the MugStore, a 25-year Authorized Dealer, the Instant Up-to-Date version is the "flat-pak", full 10.1 CD and 9.2.1 updater CD, _no_ Developer Tools CD. You need to bring either the coupons or your receipt. Some retailers may accept as proof of purchase the OS 10.0.x CD. The $20 version is supposed to be more complete. So there is still some speculation and waiting left. Brent, --I have no desire to become a tech, I just want to be an informed user.
