UPDATEx2: JR has stopped the special offer at $99, but Amazon continues its "16% off" offer and sells [1] Leopard for $109.

UPDATE: The deal is offered through a partnership between Amazon and J&R Music and Computer World which will ship the product.

Apple's just released next generation operating system, Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 is now selling for just $99.99 or a 22% drop from its original price.

The online retailer Amazon.com [2], which has already been offering Leopard at $109 instead of $129 (16% off), is now allowing its customers to save as much as $29.01 for the purchase of a Single-user Leopard license [3].

The Family Pack [4] version remains priced at $189 instead of $199, the same 10% cut the online retailer has been offering for a dozen days.

Amazon [5] is intentionally hiding the price tag of the Single-user [6] version of Leopard on its site, and explains that sometimes suppliers don't want the retailer to show the price of the product when it drops below a certain amount.

The price tag is replaced by a "Click here to see the price" link which reveals the price on a pop-up window:

Meanwhile, it appears that Apple's new operating system is a best-seller as it tops Amazon's software sales [8] since its launch.
