Mountain Lion Pricing

If OS X is moving to an iOS-like yearly release cycle, what if Apple makes Mountain Lion and follow-on releases free updates?

All the benefits the free OS updates bring to iOS devices could be found on a Mac as well. The vast majority of Mac users would almost certainly be using the latest version their hardware could handle, offering significant security and API benefits, and it would be yet another reason why buying a Mac over a Windows PC provides greater value to the consumer.

Plus, I can’t imagine Apple made all that much money (comparatively) off of Lion or Snow Leopard, given their low $29.99 cost.

I can’t wait to see how this turns out.
