I am sure these questions have been posted before, but I searched and could not find them, so here they are...

1. What is the difference between Mac Osx Lion and Mac Osx Lion Server?

2. I heard a rumor that if you buy Mac Osx Lion first,you can upgrade to Lion Server for only $20 more than paying the full price of $50.... Is this true and if so how do you upgrade through the App store without paying the full $50?
 
1. Lion is the standard operating system. Lion server is mainly a graphical interface that allows you to control the server features that are available, such as web and email servers, etc.

2. Lion Server runs on Lion only. It is available for $49.99 from the app store.
