Can I upgrade to Lion for free?

Maental2000 · 2011-10-05 12:48:01

Hi, I'm just wondering if anybody on here knows Apple's policy on this. I bought a new Macbook Pro back in the middle of march & am wondering if I would be eligible to upgrade to Lion for free because it came out only a few months after I bought the Macbook Pro??

Nope, you needed to purchase on or after July 21st to qualify for a free upgrade.

It took me all of about 10 seconds to track down the answer on the Apple website.
