Win a copy of Snow Leopard from TUAW

As usual, the deal is, you leave a comment, make sure it appears, you are entered. In a few days we'll run the random selection and boom! One of you will get a shiny new copy of OS X version 10.6 to call your own. While you wait, may I suggest our page of comprehensive Snow Leopard coverage?
Just tell us the first version of OS X you started using in the comments. It'll be fun. If you started using Apple computers before OS X, that's cool too, but did you use the 10.0 beta? Chime in and (maybe) win! Full rules below.
- Open to legal US residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia.
- To enter leave a comment below telling us what version of OS X you first used.

Now this will be my third OS on a machine that's not even 2 years old! And it runs like a champ! I want snow leopard! Gimme gimme gimme!
September 01 2009 at 6:27 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyThe first Mac OS I used was system 1.0 on the original Macintosh computer. I'll never forget how impressed I was at the time by the word processor and the drawing application. As a child at the time, I was amazed by how compact the computer was. My older cousin was using it for college. I was still learning at home on a typewriter that my Dad used for his work as a teacher.
