Hell yea! Snow Leopard is here… It’s the DVD from the Up-to-date program that came with my new MacBook Pro. But currently it’s installing on my iMac. So i guess the “eligible for update” is a fake unlike the check on Leopard. Leopard indeed checked your serial number or something to see if an upgrade DVD would work for you. Snow Leopard apparently doesn’t. Or not as strict.
It’s installing now, the re-installer as others have noted is very different. I’m curious if this thing will allow me to do a clean install. But for eagerness sake i went with the upgrade for my iMac. Which you start from the desktop. I guess Snow Leopard just strips out the PPC code all over the place and upgrades system bits where required. Or something along those lines. No reboot was required so everything was still active.
We’ll see how it turns out!
Nice post, nice blog
