This includes boxed copies of Mac OS X, iLife, iWork, Apple Remote Desktop and Aperture. Each of these programs has been available on the Mac App Store for months."</em></p><p><img height="167" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1317508414.usr105634.jpg" width="600" /></p><p>Not a big surprise, since Apple has done this for the regular consumer. Logic Express and Logic Studio will still be available but that is about it. It really makes sense though, distributing this stuff digitally. Saves money and that gets passed on to the consumer in lower prices. Or at least that is the theory. </p>
