Snow Leopard is still for sale at the Apple store
#1
This is very interesting. Doesn't Apple normally stop selling the old OS when the new one is released?

if you're still on Leopard, it might make more sense to buy the USB drive with Lion if you're going that route.

Snow Leopard $30 +
Lion $30

or

Lion USB $70

This is most likely the reason...

To upgrade your Mac to OS X Lion, you must be running OS X Snow Leopard. If you have OS X v10.5 or earlier, purchase Snow Leopard now and install it on your Mac. Then buy OS X Lion as a digital download from the Mac App Store.

They could fix that by selling Lion on DVD for $29 like SL.

Hmmm…but you can install Lion on a drive with no OS, I wouldn't bother with Snow Leopard if all I wanted was Lion.
