Os X 10.2.4

Is it correct that this update you will have to pay for it? I read on Apple's site something about $50 dollars for a new upgrade of programs... Any truth to this?

What is going on?
Any info?

In a month or two, new versions of iDVD, iPhoto, and iMovie will be available in a package called "iLife" for $50.

However, these new versions of iPhoto and iMovie will be available free for download, then.

So, basically, fo $50, you're buying the new version of iDVD, with all of it's different themes, which are too big for download.

OS X 10.2.4... this is a rumor that this is the new version of the Mac OS which is on the new PowerBooks..... if this update is for the rest of the public too, it probably most definitely be free.

apple would never dare charge for a x.x.x release.

10.2, that was a major release.... but honestly, an upgrade to a point update? would YOU pay for a 10.2.x release?

if it were worthy of charging, the apple marketing people would make them call it 10.3 at least, or 10.5 .
