Paid ADC members will get a copy of Tiger for free when it is released. Everyone else is going to have to pay.

Likely, ADC Select & Premier (possibly also Student) members will get access to the WWDC Tiger Preview a few weeks after the conference, and further seeds between then and the final release... that's the way it's worked for previous major OS X releases.

Don't you have a different drive you can install it on? That seems like the best route.

No, that's a terrible idea. I had a lot of the 10.3 builds, and they were definitely not things you'd want to rely on.

Not any people who know what's good for them. Developer previews are there so developers can prepare their software for the new OS. They aren't really meant for day-to-day use.

I think it's safe to say that only those with Seed Keys or who attended WWDC will get the seeds, like last year.

I just signed up for a student ADC account. Are you speculating for the future... or do you already have a seed key and just are debating whether or not to install it?

OIC... are you sure you're even getting a seed key? I thuoght it was only the top 2 levels of the ADC program that got seed keys??? Anyway, that would be great, but I would never want to run it as my main system. Maybe make a smallish partition for it or run it off of a remote drive.
