1. I don't think so hehe
2. For Malaysians, No
3. Yeah Leopard will be awesome no need to worry at all dude!
4. There is no cheaper place as far as I know, but if you get it in events like the upcoming PC Fair it may be cheaper(but leopard not out yet at that time)
5. Slightly cheaper.
Hope this helps

No, but they do give free Apple wireless keyboard and Epson R250 printer. Both of them cost about RM948. Imagine that.

Here, take a look HERE yourself. Thing is, the offer is on now till 12th April only. Not actually during PC Fair.
