Hello

Will we the mortals being unable to attend WWDC have the chance to buy later "The Leopard beta"?

Best Regards

Only ADC members. It won't be a "public beta".

Does ADC member mean anyone who has signed up at the ADC website? Or is it something you have to pay for?

I'm pretty sure you have to pay some absurd amount of money.

You have to be at least a Select member, which goes for $500.

It is absurd if you're only after getting your hands on the beta. If you're really a developer, it's not at all absurd.

Actually if you are thinking about buying a new machine in the near future its not a bad deal at all. I believe you still get one discount on a hardware purchase which works out to around $500 if you're thinking about getting a Mac Pro. That means that Leopard beta would be free!
