No, that's cool, I just figured if it was here, he'd do it himself, but seems like you're getting so good at it that he wants you doing it even here. Win&profit!
Also: didn't realize Capital Audio Fest was this weekend. Or that anything was this weekend -- out of touch with the local scene...alas...
Aren't you the one who told me the Mini is basically the equivalent of a laptop powerwise? The (previously mentioned) higher end iMacs go to 3.2 and 3.4 -- true desktop speeds.
Maybe it was Sherwood. I don't remember...
Apple like to keep everything in house -- eliminates 3rd party fuckups. I don't agree with such a limiting business model, but I understand that it's theirs.
And I totally get the 3rd party fuckups part. Not meaning CJ, meaning 3rd party companies that manufacture software, etc. It eliminates variables outside their control, and makes the market much easier to predict.
It's not an upgrade, the upgrade is free (it says so right on that page), that's the entire OS.* But yes I see now that the EULA dictates that the OS be put on their hardware.
*I know this because exactly this situation came up at a previous company. We had the older PowerPC-based Mac Pro that would only run Leopard of the non-Snow variety but the disk was dead and everything was lost and it cost us a new hard drive and $100 (at the time, now $20) to get a new OS. Having the hardware didn't get us shit.
