Not immune, less problematic.

While that does suck it's not Apples fault that the OP did not check the system requirements.

What's a boxed copy of Snow Leopard cost, oh yeah, $29. Not exactly highway robbery to get current.

What would an upgrade from XP to Win 7 have cost? Oh yeah, XP to Win 7 requires a clean install.

I know, build your own box for $300 and everything will be fine.
