ya know what got me by surprise today? i went out to my local apple dealer,
looking for the latest system software ... and it seems they wanted $49 bucks
this is new to me, i always thought apple let you update your software for
free. could someone from apple PLEASE explain why they're now charging for
updates? for $49 dollars it's not worth my time to update if system 7.0 is
going to be coming out soon, why pay twice. somebody please explain.
