Of course not. It'll arrive late, overpriced, and with the Lion removed to conform to plain-packaging laws. Don't forget to factor in the carbon tax.
Best of luck.

While I wait for a shiny new National Broadband Network. Which will come first, NBN or Lion? I've sweated on lots of Ubuntu and Fedora releases over the years, this is my first OSX upgrade.

Either that, or they are just - perfectly reasonably - launching it at a civilised time in the morning, in the country of origin.
One of the two...
Multiple Macs
Just to clarify about installing Lion on all your Macs, this is in Apple's App Store Help:
Use applications on multiple Macs
After you purchase an application, you can install it free of charge on every Mac you use.
Here are ways to install a purchased application on another Mac:
On the other Mac, find the application in App Store, click Buy or Free, and then provide the Apple ID you used to purchase the application.
Copy the application from one Mac to another Mac. When you open the copied application on the other Mac, enter the Apple ID used to purchase it.
Open App Store on the other Mac, and then log in using the Apple ID used to make the purchase.
Click Purchases in the toolbar to list applications purchased. Any application that has an INSTALL option was purchased using the Apple ID, but not installed on the Mac youre using. You can download and install the application on the Mac.

Just wondering, you mention the "official release." When was the "unofficial release?"
I'd expect them to do so. I've no idea what the back end to the MAS looks like, but if it's anything like that for the App Store it's a series of check boxes for all the countries. I'd image they'll hit 'Select All'.

i suppose the "unofficial" release was when the GM download became available for free on the internet for anyone that wanted it
A few hours ago I figured you were simply a Trolling Twitter. Now... it's actually gotten quite sad with the remote possibility you are being serious.
All this waiting is making me hungry. Who wants pizza?
I wish i had some ellios pizza in my freezer; all the local pizza shops are closed, god damnit!

I suppose then we should just say "After the product is released." Official or officially is used far too often (especially on this website), and incorrectly.
