I just checked my e-mail and I received the same notification. Thanks Apple for saving me cash because I was going to buy it tomorrow.

Aww crap...

I thought about that, but I thought my membership expired in Oct so I ordered it from LA Computer ($99). I just logged into my Student ADC account and noticed my account doesn't expire until 2 Nov! DOH! I guess I'll put it on craigslist!

This was enough to push me over the line to purchase a Select membership. I've been thinking about it for a while and I'm pretty certain to buy a Mac Pro during the next year so was going to join to get the hardware discount. Might was well save the cost of Leopard as well

Burn DL DVD

Anyone actually able to successfully burn and VERIFY the ADC download for Leopard? I downloaded it on two computers and still cannot successfully burn and verify the disk, despite a total of four attempts. Everyone fails the verify towards the end. Tried both Toast and Disk Utility.

I did use the Disk utility restore image file to my external drive, then I installed from external drive.

I thought it was well known that select and, what is the other one? Premium? members got it for free.

But it seems student ADC members did aswell, sweet =P
