Now that Lion can be purchased on a thumb drive, will this change anyone's mind in upgrading
 
I'm glad they decided to release it, but I've already made my own thumb drive with Lion so no need for me.

I'm sure it will change other peoples minds though.
 
I hope this does get more people to buy Lion, otherwise I can see an end to physical media totally for anything Apple

For me the cost is a bit high, otherwise I would have waited for this

I think that's a foregone conclusion anyways. It doesn't matter if apple sells a ton of these, they'll still be moving to embrace the digital download as the only way to get software.
