I have a question concerning new Apple Online Store Mac purchases on the day when Lion is released.

I'm aware that standard configuration models will continue to ship with Snow Leopard pre-installed until existing stock is sold through, but what about orders that configure as BTO through the Apple Online Store?

For example, if I ordered an iMac with an SSD on Lion launch day, since it takes a few days to build, would that mean they could install Lion during the BTO process? Or do they just have existing stock of SSD drives sitting around with SL preinstalled waiting to be plugged in by Foxconn?
