Does anyone know what the process will most likely be tomorrow for people who purchased a qualifying mac On or After June 6, to receive a free copy?

I know that this site says to return when "Lion is released in July"- http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/

Will the process allow for immediate download tomorrow, or will there most likely be a time period I would have to wait for to receive my free copy?

Thanks in advance

This is all new for Apple. No one knows what will happen. Theoretically you can just be given a redemption code and download as soon as Apple validates your machine is eligible for the up to date program.
 
I am sure it will be an easy process. I have an iMac that is eligible. What I am really wondering is...will I be able to upgrade my MacBook Pro to Lion for free since I will "purchase" it on the App Store for free on my iMac?

ya, I am hoping for a quick and easy verification on the up to date page, then a redemption code for an immediate download in the mac app store.
