Just buy it for $69 @ your University bookstore!
That's what I did!
I will, but $89 for me..and apparently they won't be selling till monday.
Has anyone heard anything new regarding this? I've keep checking to see if they've made it availabe on the ADC Downloads page, but no luck yet... I'm thinking we won't see it to download for a couple days...?

Leopard GM 9A581 Released to Developer....I'm downloading right now.
What membership do you have? I have the student one. New downloads keep appearing -- Xcode, Java, Kernel debug kit, etc... but no Leopard!
Select Membership - it appear only in the What's New section, login via standard dev, not in the leopard starter kit area.
Help me out. I can't seem to find it. I login at http://developer.apple.com/ and clicked on downloads and leopard isn't listed in What's New. Thanks.
That's because you have a Student membership - the Student membership is not promised Leopard.
A new student developer is still promised "the current version of Mac OS X and Xcode via mail along with download access to the latest Xcode updates" on this page. So someone in the UK or East Coast could order now and reasonably expect it (though strictly only by mail).
Maybe they figure that students are more likely than other developers to seed Leopard as a torrent? And giving students an already digital copy makes that process even easier??? I dunno....
All I do know is I want my Leopard!
Just got this e-mail from Apple. I guess this means that student developers do get Leopard!!

I'm a Student ADC member and wasn't holding my breath that I would receive Leopard, but I just received this e-mail from the Apple Developer Connection:

At least we get it for more or less free. I mean I got back my $100 membership fee when I saved $500 on an MBP.
I got the email too. But my ADC Student membership ends on 10/30!!!
Hope i actually make the cut off.
Ouch...that's close. Mine ends Nov 20th, so I think I'm good.
