OS X: Leopard free for ADC Members!

[TangoJuliet]

Just got an email saying that they were going to ship me Leopard for free for being a ADC member. YAY!!!!

A DVD set with Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard, Leopard Server and Xcode tools will be included in the ADC Monthly Mailing for November 2007, which will be shipped to you on October 30th. Worldwide shipments will be sent via DHL Worldmail and should arrive in approximately 3-10 business days.

Apple Developer Connection. You can join it for free, but only paying members get goodies like Leopard sent to them. Also, paying members get 1 time discounts on hardware from Apple

got mine today.

it has the monthly mailer and a copy of leopard. since i dont have an apple computer yet i have no idea what else is on the leopard cd. someone had mentioned that we were getting leopard server too. not sure if its on the cd or if its coming seperate.

I don't know if Leopard Server has been officially released yet, if not, then I would expect it to arrive in its own package.

Leopard Disc should have
Leopard
XCode
BootCamp Drivers
X11

And maybe some other developer tools as well.

same here... got it today (leopard dvd and the november developer dvd). just emailed ADC to ask about the leopard server dvd.

wow...adc CALLED me to say that they are sorry for the inconvenience, but since i have a student membership, i dont get the leopard server dvd...just the retail copy. it was their mistake that they sent that email to me.

sorry to post again, but to clarify:

adc student members get the november adc dvd as well as the leopard retail dvd...nothing else. no leopard server....oh well.
