Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y With Snow Leopard finally been given a release date and a price, the comparisons with Windows 7 are starting to pop up all over the place, especially focussing on the price aspect of things. While Apple's move to price Snow Leopard at 29 USD for Leopard owners is a very welcome one, the move doesn't mean that Microsoft is getting a price beating from Apple.

Thanks for correcting me, I guess that rumor used forged documents; not the first such rumor reported by gadget blogs, unfortunately. You still, however, haven't proven to my satisfaction that Windows 7 is a better dollar value for people running anything other than Vista than a $29 upgrade.


The original rumour came from an OEM, IIRC it was a Dell document; from what I understand about the document, it was a discussion regarding the hypothetical scenario if Microsoft chose to increase the. There was never any evidence outside the OEM discussion - hence I don't know why people keep repeating something that is obviously a load of bollocks to begin with.
