I believe you're covered. Save your paperwork. This assumes, of course, that Leopard comes out on the 26th, as predicted.

I don't know about that... hasn't Apple's stance in the past been that you have to have purchased the computer AFTER the launch of the new operating system in order to receive a free upgrade to the new operating system?

Apple has no program public as of now, but you can see the previous program here: http://web.archive.org/web/200506180...cosx/uptodate/ (Tiger was released April 29, 2005)

yeah, but those dates of the program coincided with the announcement of Tiger, Apple officially announced the release date of Tiger 2 weeks before Leopard, and that program basically said 'if you bought a mac between announcment and release, you can get it free. i would be surprised if apple gave you leopard free. there is of course apples 14-day 'return' policy, but that's if they release leopard less than 14 days after you bought it.

Apple launched a $9.95 update program today. If you bought your Mac after October 1st, 2007, you most likely qualify. Quote:
