Snow Leopard on new MBPs - When?

[distancekillsme]

I've been holding off to purchase my Macbook Pro until Snow Leopard comes out. Seeing as that date is now this coming Friday, I was wondering if anyone knows when SL will start shipping pre-installed on new MBPs. I know it would be easy enough to just update the new computer but, if possible, I'd prefer it to already be loaded on the notebook I buy.

A few weeks. Please search; this has been answered countless times for every OS release.

Having a license to two versions of an operating system can do wonders for app comparability.

Hey Tallest, go pick on OPs somewhere else.

Beginning August 28, every new Mac computer comes with Mac OS X Snow Leopard

apple will just slip the new snow leopard disks in boxes tomorrow and a few days later, Mac's will come preinstalled with snow leopard.

So will you yell and scream when it's just a drop-in disk? EVERY new OS always has drop-in disks for the first week or so.

Nothing on that page refutes my point. It "comes with" Snow Leopard, it just won't be installed.
