OSX10.6 cd

2013-11-22 Thread ben kernan
Some time ago I read here that this OS was still available at AppleStore brick 
 mortar locations. Today, when is visited my local one, with cash in hand, I 
was told that they not only did not have such, but had never carried it. I was 
told that I would have to buy it online. What is the truth in this???

I would wager that the truth is what the actual vendor of said item told you 
rather than what 'someone on the internet' told you 8-)

Contact Apple 1-800-My-Apple, it actually works pretty well.

First of all, I do not believe that Apple ever made available OS 10.6.x (Snow 
Leopard) on CDs.  I therefore assume that you meant OSX 10.6 DVD.  

I have reported on this and a few other LEM groups that, as of some months ago, 
Apple once again began to sell the Snow Leopard DVD for $19.99 through its 
Online Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

As a careful reader of every group message, I have never read here that it 
was still available at AppleStore brick  mortar locations.
