You're right. It's actually going to be £20.99 - the OS X page is now updated and confirms this.

From what I've seen I would hardly call Lion a major update. Not by a long shot.
If anything Snow Leopard should have costed more, didn't they do a lot of optimising under the hood or am I wrong? Lion just looks to have iOS'd up OS X a bit and not a whole lot more. There's some cool stuff, but it's not major.
I purchased a MBP from Apple 2 weeks ago, wonder if I'll get a free copy?
At that price I'm happy to pay of course
Maybe when you complete the upgrade it will give you the opportunity to create some bootable media? We'll just have to wait and see.
To be honest when it comes to operating systems I'm not a fan of any kind of in place upgrade so it's put me right off really even if it is cheap.
Plus as good as OS X is I still have to say I'm quite wary over doing upgrades over clean installs. In this case though it doesn't seem like much is changing under the hood, so I'm pretty comfortable just upgrading.
Upgrading Windows 98 to XP sucked though, as did Vista to 7, it always felt like something was askew.
good job that the way OSX upgrades is completely different to windows then.
When i "upgraded" to Snow Leopard, it managed to free up around 8gb extra disk space and required absolutely no input. Just enter your username and password and off it goes.
When has a windows upgrade ever been anything like that ?
Will there be a family pack for Lion like the previous generations?
Did they implement TRIM??
