Mac Mini Purchaser Receives Snow Leopard Restore Disc? Up-to-Date Orders "Prepared for Shipment"?
The Japanese version of Engadget reports [Google translation] that a Mac mini purchaser appears to have received a Mac OS X Snow Leopard restore disc along with the computer. The source has provided a photo of the DVD, as well as several screenshots showing the Snow Leopard installer.
Meanwhile, several readers report that the status of their OS X Snow Leopard Up-to-Date pre-orders have changed to "Prepared for Shipment" and continue to indicate a shipping date of "By August 28th", adding yet another indication that the launch of Apple's new operating system is quickly approaching despite the lack of an official announcement from the company so far.

What's the big fuss with this snow leopard release on this website. It really isn't anything for anyone to get excited about.

I recall reading that the Snow Leopard ship date on the UK site had changed to "September", but hopefully it will fall back into that prime spot for next Friday :)

This is a mess.
I agree.
Apple needs to set a date and stop this speculation.

This seems to point, like everything else to a release on Friday 28th. I just wish Apple (typical Apple) weren't so darned secretive about it. It looks pretty obvious that the UK store jumped the gun and then were followed by the other international stores before Apple HQ pulled the plug and put the "black cloak" back over everything.
I would guess an announcement on Monday.

I'm sort of surprised. Apple generally ships drop-in discs with their Macs for a few weeks after a new operating system is released. The Apple Software Restore DVD is usually the last to get upgraded.
