        Well they could bootstrap a compiler! No?
        I have been around Apple for a long time. MPW was not for free!

        Maybe, like I said Lion will have Xcode bundled in or they might sell 
Lion with out, because most
        do not need it. As a developer you can download Lion beta for free, yet 
you can buy it in the Mac
        APP Store! So it just be a pre-release thingy, or Apple is just testing 
what the reactions might be.
        Only time will tell!??

regards
        Keith.
