Apple Seeds Leopard (10.5) to Select and Premier Developers
Apple has seeded Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Preview to Apple Developer Connection developers with Select ($500/yr) or Premier accounts ($3500/yr).
The Leopard version provided is reportedly the same build that was demonstrated at WWDC (Build 9A241). Apple provided one online update to Leopard developers which brings the final build to 9A241e.
Apple demonstrated Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) at WWDC 2006 and provides a preview of its features on their website.
Mac OS X 10.5 is not expected to be released until Spring of 2007.

Do you need to have a payed Membership? I can't seem to find anything about it.
You need to be a Select or Premier member so yes, you need to have a paid membership.

My 'student developer account' does not offer a Leopard download... this is a $99,- a year account but the rules say you will not receive such OSX preloads... I do receive released or updates through DVD mailings as well as downloads on Apple's developer site.

My student developer account does not offer a Leopard download... :(
That's because you are not a Premier or Select member. To get the preview you need to spend at least $500 on membership!

Lol, is it that hard to grasp that you have to have a premier or select membership for leopard preview?
That means no:
Free membership
Student memberships
Mailing memberships
Unregistered memberships
:p

Geez, after waiting over a month, it's the same version we received at WWDC. I'd at least expected to see another revision... :confused:
