From Macworld:
but the standard version of Snow Leopard is abootable 「full install」 disc that doesn't actually check for the presence of Leopard in order to install. This also means that if, at a later time, you want to wipe your hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard, you won't have to first install Leopard and then run a separate Snow Leopard upgrade on top of it. (That sound you hear is a thousand IT managers sighing with relief.)
這真是太棒啦!
日後就算要換硬碟之類的動作
也沒有必要先安裝leopard在安裝snow leopard這麼多此一舉的動作了

根據該文的說明,雪豹「升級」方案、單賣的雪豹、與包含雪豹的「box set」的差異應該只在於授權條文而已。(如果有標準版的話,應該是指 1090 那個)

...... Unlike previous editions of Mac OS X, which could be freely installed on any old Mac so long as it met the system requirements, Snow Leopard’s license specifically limits it to users who are already using Leopard, which has been shipping since October 2007 ...... If you are a Leopard user, you can upgrade a single Mac for $29 ...... Apple continues to rely on the honor system for Mac OS X. Not only does Snow Leopard not require the entry of any serial numbers, but the standard version of Snow Leopard is a bootable “full install” disc that doesn’t actually check for the presence of Leopard in order to install. ......
