I recieved it this afternoon via FedEx.. upgraded.. and am using it now.
I also only recieved the CDs and booklet... but eh.. only $20

Shipped Fed Ex. I think the CDs do full install, as well as archive and just upgrade. I don't really feel like knowing, if you catch my drift. But still, 20 bucks is awesome for an upgrade. I actually got really lucky (sorta). My parents bought an eMac the 2 of Oct, but it was defective (burn mark in screen), so we returned it on the 8 and got the free upgrade. I missed out on the new eMac deals, but I got w/ edu discount so no biggy. Recent switcher. OS X rocks my WORLD!
Just in time ...
The FedEx truck just left my office and the oddest thing happened. The driver delivered two black cats. One was in a box and the other was snuggled in an envelope. I know it's close to Halloween. These two cats will look nice perched next to my eMac and G5 with spooky music playing. I can hardly wait to get them home and feed them. WOOO HOOO !!!!!

I didn't see the option to archive and install or to do a clean install...
So I just upgraded.. workin' fein so far

My Up-To-Date pack is happily doing an archive-and-install right now on the iMac we got it for. It seems to be the retail discs. I don't see anything calling it an upgrade...
:-( Installed 10.3 with just upgrade - I bought my 12" PBook only 2 weeks ago haven't installed much. But now, Safari doesn't work :-(( I don't know which other apps are not working.
The online version of Safari is 1.0, which refuses to install. Any suggestions?

If you really want Mac OS boxes, I'll dig up and send you my Mac OS 7.6, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 boxes.
Be glad you're not adding to the wasted boxes problem.

Very true, you're not dealing with the tree huggers today. (jp!)
Um, could I put that upgrade CD on an iMac if i ordered it for the G5 with up-todate?
(in the even that i wouldn't put it on the g5, b/c i am soooo against software piracy :wink

Re: Up-to-Date no box?
Noramlly the UP-TO-DATE packages do not come in the original box. Mac OS 10.1 upgrade came in a nice folder, but in the past they only came with book (coupons if it was a newer OS), and manuals.

You have to have OSX installed on that patition though, you cannot just install on a blanck patition.
So does anyone know what it is that won't let you install the Up-to-date discs on a freshly formatted drive? I hate to think that when I want to change my partitions that I have to install 10.2 and then install the Up-to-date discs to have panther up and running.
