Could one of you who's MBA shipped with with ML let us know the available HDD space on the machine when it arrived. Pretty please, with a cherry on top?
Mine is a 256 and when I was going through it ML took up 20GB, pretty much exactly.
Ordered mine on the 8th Aug, preparing for shipment now, expected delivery between 16-20th Aug in UK.
If you buy from a retail store at this moment in time, you're most likely to receive an "older" stock with Lion pre-installed.
On the Apple online store, selecting a standard model with a long model number such as MD232B/A, will show the OS as just OS X. Which could be Lion or M Lion, bit of a lottery.
Now if you modify that stock model with say more RAM or a CPU upgrade, it should come with Mountain Lion pre-installed.

Just received my special-order MBA 13 (8GB 256) ordered from Apple on August 3 and it has ML pre-loaded.
After reading about the battery issues, I kind of hope I get one with Lion now.

Is this with iLife installed? Garageband and iMovie are monsters.

Ordered stock model on the 11th, received today with Lion.
I am actually relieved by this.
The up to date program process was simple and it only took a couple of minutes to get my ML key.
So best of both worlds IMO.
