Through the end of the year, educators can take advantage of Apple’s “X for Teachers” program, which offers a free copy of Mac OS X v10.2 Jaguar to every K-12 teacher in the country.

Jaguar comes with free copies of Apple’s Digital Hub applications: iMovie, iPhoto and iTunes. Complete eligibility requirements are available online at www.apple.com/education/macosxforteachers.
