That’s right boys and girls, with glowing reviews abound and an incredibly low price point, there’s no reason you shouldn’t be licking the glass at your local Apple store right now.  Just to double-check, I called our local Apple store yesterday to find out if they were going to have a midnight launch, but no dice.  I mean, I’m not that desperate to get my hands on it, but it still would’ve been cool. Again, those looking for a whole new OS X are going to be disappointed, but the numerous under-the-hood modifications combined with a few nice bumps to Expose’, Finder, and QuickTime X make this upgrade more than worth the price of admission.  Speaking of which, it looks like Amazon is selling the regular edition and the family-pack for a reduced price of $25 and $43.99, respectively. After I’ve had a chance to play around with it a bit tonight I’ll be sure to put up some first impressions.

Well boys and girls, the hour is getting ever nearer for Apple to finally release OS X Snow Leopard next month and Amazon is confident enough that they’ve gone ahead and allowed us all to preorder it.  Remember, if you’re an existing Leopard user, Snow Leopard is only $29 while a family pack with five licenses is $49.  So what’re you waiting for?  Head on over and get your preorder on!
