    The apple store is down worldwide right now.
    Logical guess is that Snow Leopard is getting setup for release.

    Yeap the store is back and Snow Leopard is now up for purchase. Will be out on the 28th for 29€. That's a bit higher then I was hoping for, as its about equal to $40US, but I guess we should be used to that by now.

    The UK is normally the most expensive place to buy Mac stuff, so I would think being anywhere but there would be a good thing at the moment no?...lol

    ps I'm sure you'll find a local reseller with some stock soon after the 28th

    I ordered two copies (one for each recent MBP purchase) for $9.95+tax each. It seems like they should be shipped sooner than later :D

    I don't think Apple releases Boot Camp drivers on the web. For example, Boot Camp 2.2 isn't available anywhere on Apple's website, only the update patch 2.2.1 is (which requires 2.2).
