Snow Leopard Box Set

Apple has allegedly slipped a product listing for a Snow Leopard Box Set, although the page was quickly removed from the store, according to MacRumors. A Google search, however, still shows an Apple Store result for the product number MC209Z/A.

The bundle packages Mac OS X 10.6 with the iLife '09 and iWork '09 software suites. The set will be required for users upgrading from OS X 10.4, while pricing matches the previous Leopard Box Set price of $169.

Apple is set to release its operating system update with competitive pricing compared to Windows 7, with upgrades from 10.5 to 10.6 available for just $29. A five-license family pack carries a price of $49, while a family box set will ship for $229.

The slipped product page potentially indicates Apple is ready to release its operating system in the near future. The company has not yet placed a date on the launch, although it is slated for sometime in September. A variety of rumors suggest the company might release the software early, although the reports remain unconfirmed.

Apple has stated they plan to ship Snow Leopard in September. Creating a part number for the product doesn't mean anything. This would be expected!!

a pretty box. Reminds me of the box my 15-inch Apple monitor came in back in 1995 along with my Quadra 610.
