Over the weekend while browsing the Czech official website AppI noticed something interesting. The company still has the legendary Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, which she presented on June 8, 2009 at WWDC, almost eight years ago. This is a version of the system that is popular among long-time users Applu is known as one of the most reliable ever. At that time, software engineers from the Californian giant focused primarily on debugging bugs, expanding support for 64-bit architecture in the most used applications (Safari, QuickTime Player) and especially for saving storage – Snow Leopard took up only half the disk space of its predecessor

Mac OS X 10.6 Apple until today it sells for 549 CZK, while the original price when upgrading from the previous version was 29 dollars (approximately 733 CZK). Apple has a menu with the system hidden from regular customers, so you won't find it in Mac software accessories. You can get to the item only through a search on the website, where you then need to select a section Accessories, or you can use the proven Google, where the offer with the system will appear in the first position.
It sells alongside Snow Leopard Apple still Mac OS X 10.7 Lion a Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, and for the same price as their predecessor, i.e. 549 CZK. While the earliest Mac OS X 10.6 you Apple will deliver (for CZK 151) on a physical medium, while still having it in stock, so the other two newer systems will be delivered to you Apple will send via e-mail after payment.
I think a few users are still running on 10.6. There is Recovery on the DVD and I think it is being sold for that very reason. At 10.7. + 10.8. is Recovery directly on the HDD and it is therefore not necessary to have a physical medium.
Exactly.
Did you have to pay for system updates before? Now it's like opening mac app store and I'll download a new system for free, isn't that true? Was it done differently before? Or what's the point, on computers other than the one from applu it doesn't work. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Of course, it used to be paid both for MacOS in the 90s and later after the Millennium for the first versions of OS-X. There was even a $20 upgrade fee for the first iPad Touch for a new system! At that time, functions were added and it is said that the functionality of the device has changed compared to what was declared at the time of purchase.
