I'm thinking of getting a MBP soon, but obviously, I want to have Lion on it. I remember that in previous years, you could buy a Mac right before a new release came out, and they would ship you an upgrade CD when it was released free of charge. So, for example, if it was a month before OS X Snow Leopard came out, you would buy a Mac with Leopard and they would ship you the Snow Leopard upgrade CD a month later. Does anyone know when that'll happen (or if it'll happen) for Lion?
Got a tip for us?

Lots of speculation for this summer. But its only speculation.
Either you purchase now and possibly fork out the cost for lion, or just wait.

Possibly. I wouldn't count on it though, as it most likely won't be effective until they announce when Lion is actually coming out. Plus, Lion will be more than $30, so that might be a little less likely.
