[RndTbl] OS X tips

[Dan Martin]

I was at the Apple store yesterday, asking about Snow Leopard.  I had  
understood earlier that it was an 'upgrade' from Leopard - but the guy  
in the store says it's a complete OS and has no previous requirements  
(except the firmware, I assume).

So there is also one being sold for $200?
