Am I correct in understanding that the only change to the Mac Mini after 22 October is the Mavericks OS? Does this come with the Mavericks OS?

When I bought this Mac Mini, it came with Lion (Server version). This year's probably still Lion until Apple releases Maverick.

Mavericks is a free upgrade. So even if the mini comes with 10.8.x you can upgrade for free - I just did it and it was painless. Easy.

You Should Wait Until October. Thats When Everything Gets Released but man these new imacs are very nice

Thank you for the update. Major bummer - Apple seems to be screwing Amazon and the other retailers by holding out inventory of the new iMacs from them. I don't want to wait another month + either, so I'll probably get one from the Apple store too, and suffer the $150 tax hit. Booooo to Apple on this one.

I have tried contacting Amazon to find out when the iMacs with Leopard be available and no one seems to know... does anyone know when it will be?

Bought mine when I had Mavericks. Just upgraded to Yosemite. Worked great with both systems.

It appears as though they may have pushed out this date. The download website currently reads "Fall, 2008" for a Mac Friendly version... Anyone have any input?

there are no 2013 Mac mini models. at least as of September 2013... who knows this fall? am somewhat hopeful the Mac mini will receive a Haswell overhaul in Q4'13

This Macbook Pro is operating on Mavericks, not the latest system software, Yosemite. It has, however been upgraded with all software updates available for Mavericks.

8 and right after I plugged it in 8.1 became available but i couldn't figure out how to upgrade! Think it was suppost to be free but I wasn't able to do so. It's been in the box for the last 3 months, haven't had time to plug it back in. I got it for the XP thing ending. Liked it though, but my Mac mini fits better on the shelf !

Yes. I purchased a Late-2011 model 17" from Amazon a few months ago. Even though it had Mavericks on it when it arrived, it was a Mavericks upgrade rather than a newly installed Mavericks. The major difference between the two is that upgraded Mavericks may or may not be able to enable FileVault disk encryption. Go to the Apple website and download and burn an install DVD for Yosemite and do a clean format and install. You get all the features of Yosemite and it runs well on this unit. Forget about USB 3.0 on this model. But the good thing is that is has Firewire 800 if you still have those. I'm running Yosemite with full disk encryption--no problems. Yes.

Oh, I do apologize for the wrong information. Back then it looked like they were dropping the emu line completely, and even on the official forum Creative made it clear that they would put no more effort on the development of Mac drivers. But obviously they changed their mind along the line, and had made some progress. Looks like they have a driver work for Snow Leopard and Lion. But then Mavericks is around the corner now, and Creative still doesn't have a Mountain Lion driver, so I would think hard before purchasing this product at this moment.

I just received my MacBook today, and was disappointed to find that it had tiger installed, not leopard. I was under the impression that leopard would already be in it. looks like I would have to pay another $100-plus to purchase it. If you have any luck from Amazon, please let me know.

Yes, I was using it with Mavericks, I've now upgraded to Yosemite but haven't used this with it yet.

Ah, this is interesting. I didn't know it would require an update to Snow Leopard, but I can see why it would. Then the update should come pretty soon, as Apple says (on the Apple Store) they will start shipping the mouse in "5-7 business days".

I'm using the iMic with Mavericks on a MacBook Pro and a Mini. It works fine with both.

Hi, I ended up purchasing the Mino and didn't have any problems whatsoever. Basically when I launched the software for the first time the screen asked me what version of OSX I was running and then that was pretty much it. I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
