A question from a mac newbie

cercopithecion

Hey there, I just bought a Powerbook and a friend had said that he'd read that Jaguar could be bought cheaper to people who just bought computers with OSX installed. Is there any truth in this and if not, is it worth me spending $130 to upgrade an OS I just purchased?

Yup, call and bitch. Some people have been getting the discount anyway.

You can always find someone that could get the education discount so you can get Jaguar gor $69.

Oh I can get the education discount, I'm in college. I still intend on calling and bitching, but I'd forgotten all about it during their business hours.
