that's pretty quick.


In fact, the announcement for end of august is not a real news, Apple gave hints of it before. About 2 weeks ago.

i can't help feeling that there will be less free updates than i've been used to over the years.


For a bit more than 2 years they did a big release for money per year, a big update for free and 2 maintenance updates for free.

It's not the first time they choose to treat the users of the OS like that. They do believe in the "it's a licence to use, not a buy" BS for lawyers. People DON'T understand that. They feel endorsed by the software and believe in cool and fair update prices. It is simply not the case.

They'd sell the big update for half price to previous owners, it'll be fair. It's just a reminder Apple is just a MicroSoft/Adobe/Digidesign under the hood.

One day they should understand it's not commercial. point. angry.gifangry.gifangry.gifangry.gifangry.gifangry.gifangry.gif

anyway, I will follow this (even if won't be around for a long while in august and september, lucky guys)

BTW, the right short way form my avatar is lpm (no offense wink.gif cool.gif
