My dad bought a G4 in July but didn't get it until late August - I'm wondering (for him) does he qualify for the up-to-date program or is he SOL and have to buy Panther at full tilt?

SOL. Up-to-date is only if you bought a system or Jaguar today or later except G5's. Any G5 gets Panther through Up-to-date.

not true my brotha...not true.

Although I do believe he is SOL as well.

BUT for anyone else out there...I ordered my new powerbook on October 2, 2003 and it IS in fact included in the upgrade program. $19.99 US

How'd you pull that one off? I have many customers that could benefit from your wisdom!

I have heard a rumor that a few people that bought new Powerbooks recently have been able to qualify for the MacOS X up-to-date program. You may want to try to apply for the MacOS X up-to-date program if you bought a Powerbook recently (September or October).

My 1.25 gig imac purchased Sept 17 qualified. I think they must have a larger grace period than they're advertising...
