I updated my mini to Lion in mid-May... I wonder if Apple will offer a discount for users who recently purchased Lion. :\

The upgrade is $19.99.

It's priced well within the "who cares" range.

Not if you don't deinstall or update the software that is crashing Lion.




P.S.: Apple had about 70 different models and configurations available at the same time in the mid-90s. You've owned them all?

Actually there was a reasonable number of distinct models, certainly few enough that one could conceivably own them all. All of those "70 models" were essentially different part numbers that often reflected a small difference such as an extra piece of included software or a co-processor etc. I my self have owned just about every basic model, but that's because I am in the Mac service/Sales business and have them pass through frequently.

...And most of those were the Performas- about 5 different flavors of the same model that were all sold from different retailers. If you worked in any Mac sales or service company, it is very feasible. I personally have owned almost 20 Macs in the last 15 years.

If only. The differences were limited to HDD size, the amount of RAM, presence of internal modem and clock speed 20 MHz up or down. The reason was so that all the different home electronics chain could advertise "lowest price anywhere - guaranteed!" by buying all of certain part number. This was basically a requirement to get shelf space in certain home electronics chains back in the nineties.
