Bugger. That means 2AM in Korea. Might be a late night as 6Gb is not so bad on a 100mb connection 😀
Steve Job just had been called me... Yeah, Lion will release soon tonight.
Yo... yo, are we over night to download?

He was partly right, partly wrong.
According to the International Standards Organisation (ISO8601) there is 00:00 hours and 12:00 hours. And 6PM would be 18:00 hours. There are 24 hours in a day!
I love Korea's dl/upload speed 🙂
But it is going to suck waiting until 2AM... but then again I'm sure the dl will take less time than the keynotes I sometimes watch.
wel guys I do not know when but its soon because i have just tested my recovery partition which before failed on problem with app etc. now it works fine on both test machines , i have not changed anything at this end so it must be due to the app store work reported on the front page
it does check the serial no. and it asked for your app store ID before DL the new installer ( application )
so things are changing with the app store
BTW it took 10 mins on my 100Mb cable 😀
frett no more it will soon land😉

Face it. Lion's not coming out until Thursday. Just get over the fact it's not coming out today.
Apple has been known to come out with new stuff in the early afternoon/late morning. Let's wait until 1pm or 2pm (which would be 10am or 11am in California) and then call it quits for the day.

How do you know for sure? Is the date for tomorrow a concrete fact or just a rumour? People said it would be out on the 6th but that never happened.
I was just about to download the GM, good thing I looked here first. Might as well wait until tomorrow and buy the disc online.😀
There is no disk, it will be from the App Store Only, unless Apple changes there mind.
Remember, it's only approaching 8am in California. Apple has easily another three hours before we can call it quits. 🙂

Make it another 6 and sounds good, start it going overnight and leave it
one problem though, i am still on 10.6.7, 10.6.8 seems to have avoided me
Apparently according to Apple having 10.6.8 is going to make it easier to download Lion from the app store.
