Hey all,
Just curious. I went to the AU store and attempted to create an account.
However, since people outside their country can buy stuff in other stores, how
does one get valid billing info for said store without getting into Frawd?
An album I want just came out in the AU store today.

I've got the new update, stumbled across it yesterday. One wonderful thing with

Hi!
Definitely agree with this. In fact, I hear that the Mac OS X 10.7, Lion, is
going to be a sort of "business" addition. Of course, I'm sure we all remember
the "truly amazing feature", but it sounds slightly illogical that VoiceOver
wouldn't handle tables properly in documents eventually.
I have a question about this actually. I'm getting a mac this
christmas. Can I buy mac OS 10.7 as a digital download or am I forced
to go to the apple store to get it?
