Hi Peter

Nothing has been announced with Lion "fully". My personal guess will be that
we won't see it released until much later this year. I think it won't appear
until about August / September. Again, that's just my thoughts.
Others may feel different. But based on past experience that tends to be the
time they release it. I personally can't see it being ready any earlier.
But I'm not on their developer preview list, so don't get to play with the
early releases. And others who are on it have a signed NDA, so they can't
tell you much about it for fear of Apple Wrath.
I would think we'll see more info come out about it at WWDC (World Wide
Developers Conference) which I think is in June from memory. They'll
probably release more details then and if it's on track we may see it later
this year.
Again, these are just my feelings and readings. There isn't anything
concrete to go on. :o)

Oh, and the Applestore is back up,..
New iMac's...

Rumours were a little off. Two 21" models and two 27" models.


Kind regards
Daniel
