After reading the MacWorld article, I checked both Amazon and Other World Computing, and neither is offering Lion...
Then I called Apple, and was told that there had been some confusion about this issue, but that I could download Lion for $29. I was greatly relieved to hear that.
I'll do that soon, but need to download Pages first and confirm that my MS Word docs will open in Pages - the Apple rep said that my version of Word (2004) wasn't compatible with Lion...

Did you find Lion on the Apple Store? If so, where? My phone call to the Store resulted inform assurances right up the line that it was NOT available for purchase.

I'm still using Lion, but for me, in Safari 6, the File menu in Safari offers "Mail contents of this page," and "Mail link to this page," both with keyboard shortcuts assigned. In both cases, it opens an email with the selected content, and the cursor blinking in the "To" field.

Hi Dan,
I tried to find their site to see what it is all about and if I would like
to use it, but the links given all have a 403 error code. Do you have a
good link for them?
