Haha, the local dealership is giving away (used) KIAs with new cars. Just thought I'd share.

Yeah this is going to be a pretty cool update. I'm going to buy it simply based on the rumors of the speed. The Gui sounds revamped too plus other things that tie it closer with the BSD core to make it faster. I can't wait.

Where did you find that price? My husband works at a University, so we get educational prices too. I just checked out Academic Superstore. They don't have Jaguar yet and 10.1.3 costs $119.

Edu price

Well, in reply to the question about where to get the edu price... just go to store.apple.com. On the top toolbar, you'll find educational. then you click on that and specify your school. Simple! You get a page full of coolie discounts.

P.S,

I really want to visit the Apple HQ cause im soooo close to it... i should do it soon... I wonder if they do a tour!??! Will report back!


Much Love,

The Mac Geekette

This one's a no-brainer. Jaguar makes OS X primetime (and not 10.1, as Steve would have had us believe). Sure, 10.1 is usable on my bondi iMac, but this baby's definitely getting an upgrade.

Educational discounts are only available for teachers?
What about the students?

Hmm, actually it's someone on this board, in another thread, who told it would cost 69$ for students but somebody I know told me the same.
