Unless you are willing to break the Apple license the actual upgrade price from Tiger is $170 (which is similar to going from XP to win7). Not enforced but neither is the Win7 "upgrade".
So basically, going from XP to Win7 price is $120 on Amazon. Going from Tiger to 10.6 is $170.
Now, in both cases hopefully you got in on the special win7 pricing ($50) or you are skipping the official Apple price ($30).
Look, we all understand and respect Pixar... but that is a match made in hell imo.
Pixar makes moral tales about relationships and such. And the stories are simplified until every annoying nuance is squeezed out of it.
Take Wolverine, remove all the grit, take away the moral ambiguity that he struggles with... and what is left over? A furry pile of dog crap (and his claws I guess).
Please don't assume that what has made Pixar successful is their animation... it's been about their kid friendly storytelling.

CGI + comics isn't enough to make that a win.
