Leopard for 24" Intel iMac.

[paulg1979]

I have recently purchased a 24" iMac and wondered if it will be possible to run Leopard on it? Will this program cost a fortune to buy when its released?

 

[tyr2]

Yes and it will probably be around £90 or $130.

 

[paulg1979]

Thats a top price. Will that come with iLife 07?

No, iLife has always been $79, and will not be included in Leopard.

There is chance that Leopard will be $99 instead of $129 as previous OS X releases.

That's cheap. Retail upgrades to Vista from XP will be over £200 probably.

Yes I know its cheap. I mean top price as in a good price. I wouldn't pay a £1 for any Windows OS.

Egads, £200... how much more do the bottom shelf Dell desktops cost in the UK?

Really nasty ones probably around £300. I think I may have overestimated. Full retail XP Pro is £246.75. This is probably a better comparison to OSX though as the retail DVDs of Tiger (and I assume Leopard) install without needing you to have a prior OS CD/DVD to hand unlike upgrade versions of Windows.

For reference an XP Pro Upgrade is actually £165.66
