1. try dealmac, megamacs or even ebay, if you've the time
They are going at 30-50+ on ebay right now.
I think it is legit to resell, since apple releases full versions each time.
good luck :)

3. Great deal would be to stay away from it...
if you have 2 computers and upgrade one, it breaks iCal so not only can they not sync, but it will CRASH 2.0.5 on the system running 10.4.11

Evidently a way to force people to upgrade all machines... put all those eggs in one basket.

Going to try to take 2.0.5 home and replace 3.0 on the machine running Leper

5. which assumption?
that they intentionally made the new system not very compatible with the old one?

It's not so much conspiratorial as just the Apple arrogance... the presumption that I want to use iPhoto and stuff like that. They just seem to forget the idea of backwards compatibility and that not everyone buys a whole new system every time they upgrade the OS.
