noxnoctum Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Was looking at the store... I only saw the "pre-order special" thing that gives you the download and solid copy version with that admittedly fancy looking steel case for $65+S&H... but I didn't see any digital version only for sale. What's going on? I'm kinda... short on cash, so I might have to go with digital version only. Plus all the steel boxes are probably out of stock now already right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJFHutch Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 The download only option comes up after release, no idea why you can't pre-order the download only though :| 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noxnoctum Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 Maybe to encourage more people to pay $65 ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're only downloading it you'll be able to buy it and get it as soon as anyone who's pre-ordered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it'd be good to let us download it and then activate when it's ready (maybe download available a day before release or something. So yeah, there's not that much point, but still it would be nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveyJJ Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I'm set to buy my second copy of an OSX D/L version-only as soon as it gets released as my prize to the winner of my "Win a Copy of CMBN" trivia contest on another forum. That winner is "patiently" waiting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
