SG Solutions just told me that they were shipped today, so won’t make it for tomorrow. But next week they’ll be there.

I also just sent an e-mail, so I’ll be sure to update about it.

Since it’s $29 over there, I don’t think we’ll see it for just €20 here, do you? More like 25-30 euros. But that’s fine by me.

Yeah you’re right about the DVI-VGA adapter, I’m going to need a MacBook Pro -> DVI adapter soon, so that’s probably another €25 or something

I’ve fired off a few emails to their regular email addresses and will see if i get a response back. Last time I did it took them a week to reply to me… not to mention that it will be a miracle that they sell the upgrade for 20EUR. Even a DVI-VGA adapter costs more than that from them.. lol

I think SG Solutions is on “part time” or something during summer period, that’s probably why the answering machine is on.

I’ll send an e-mail to the guy in there I know, tomorrow, to see if they have some updated news. I would hate spending the weekend *without* Snow Leopard, knowing that everybody else out of Malta will be installing it

Looking forward to its release too.. I ended up ordering it from amazon. Check the TimesOfMalta link http://is.gd/2zQRE .. according to which “Apple’s new Snow Leopard software will sell as an upgrade for €20, starting on Friday”… ye right.. SG Solutions are closed and there is answering machine even though its 4pm on a Wednesday..
