| It looks like I'm going to skip Tiger so maybe I'll consider getting Leopard. I'm also hoping that universal binary versions of all the software that I use will be released. This will make it easier when I actually move over to Intel machines, but I have no plans to purchase hardware in 07.  |

| How far back does Apple generally go to allow a free upgrade on a OS? I got my Mac Pro... I want to say mid October. i guess thats too far, so i'm stuck buying it. Can you say... Student Discount via a friend of mine. Work only does 10% off i think, likely less.

| They don't really go far back. Basically, they'll announce Leopard and if you buy a machine _then_, after that, you have a chance of getting a free upgrade. At least that's how it was done in the past.

| Tiger is £58 student, £89 standard. leopard will be the same, as this has been the pricing of all previous versions of OS X. 'free' upgrades are only available to those who bought new macs after the release date has been anounced (usually a 4-6 week period). and you have to pay shipping etc.

| iLife '07 / iWork '07? You can buy iWork 07 by itself, right? I ran the trial version, seems to cover everything I needed and have nice templates, so I might buy it if they offer student discount.
