Lion: July 14?

one question guys, since an OVERNIGHT is scheduled for the 13, that means that if the overnight is happening on the 13th, then we should have lion on Wednesday.

cuz if they are going to put all the lion stuff in the stores on the 13th overnight, then we will have it on the 13th durning the day , no?
 
This thread reminds me of how many people live, or nearly die (in their language) over something as silly as an OS change.

Notice I did not say upgrade, it's a bit early to make that claim.

However we all know it's an absolute must, as part of Apple's Marketing Ploy.

Fischer Price has a new rival.

LOL

I have to agree. This site is about tech, people talking about tech, people enjoying tech. Half of us are secretly (or not so secretly) crazy nerds who will go crazy over "little" things. I think it's a big deal though, but again that's coming from a crazy nerd.

I don't think so. I think the overnight is after the work day on the 13th, so it would be released the next day on the 14th.
 
I hope Lion doesn't get released any time soon. I hate to say it but there are some bugs that need to get resolved first. I hope Apple sees it like that. After using the software extensively, I would say that the GM is in a state of Beta 4 or 5, but not of a final release.
Some of the issues:
  • Exchange Autodiscover buggy implementation
  • Mail.app crashing some times
  • Addressbook has issues syncing Exchange Contacts
  • Sleep issues on latest Mac Pro model
  • iCal doesn't always sync with MobileMe
  • Office 2011 crashes a lot. Especially Office Communicator.

I would prefer if Apple released Lion in September.

No it should be done the night of the 13th therefor release on the 14th, but with the last four being released on a friday this might as well so it could be the 15th

Yeah, I guess that could be the case too. I'm still hoping for the 14th though!
 
No shipping required

I could have sworn that the ONLY way you get 10.7 Lion is through the app store (WWDC 06/06/11). Not sure what is shipping to the stores, but it ain't gonna be Lion.

clap, clap, clap good for you

We (ie: the rest of us) are looking forward to this UPGRADE because we're excited by all things Apple that are new. Nothing wrong with that nor should we have to justify to you.
 
Today is July 14th.... and no LION is looks like.

The Apple Kool Aid I have been drinking for so long does not taste so sweet today. Ugh.

It's not their first post. They joined in June. Although there is a 99% chance it is a fake.

Apple would not release something without updating their site at the same time.
