Mac OS X Lion coming tomorrow? Although unconfirmed, multiple reports are claiming that Apple's Mac OS X Lion operating system will be available tomorrow.
The upgrade is available as a digital download only, for Mac users running 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, and will cost just $30.

Apple retail stores have allegedly received final copies of Lion, in order to upgrade in-store demo units.

Additionally, Apple will be holding employees overnight in order to train them on the new operating system.

They need training? I thought MacOS was so easy anyone could use it and figure it out without training. I would hope that Apple employees would be better at that than most.

Besides isn't Lion mostly OS 10.6 with the the Apple App store added in.
