Apple to Accept Returns of Mac OS X on Some G3s
An anonymous reader writes "A class-action lawsuit was filed over Mac OS X not working correctly on some of the older G3's, and Apple has tentatively agreed to refund the purchase price of the OS ($129) to people who purchased it for use on those computers, and wish to return it." The agreement is not final. If you wish to continue using the OS on your computer, despite it not working fully, you can instead receive a $25 coupon. The deal will, apparently, apply to the iMacs through the fruit-colored models; the pre-chiclet iBooks; the PowerBook G3s; the first three Power Mac G3 models; and the all-in-one Power Mac G3.
If I haven't seen it before, it is new to me!
I hate sigs.
But the real apple news item for today is MS Office for mac being split into three versions, and VPC + Windows XP (2K I could understand, but this is just twisted) being bundled with the professional edition.
Do the majority of people say "Oh Ess Ecks" or "Oh Ess Ten"? I'm in the "Oh Ess Ecks" because it sounds l33t.
