Nehalem is... Like... 4th generation Mac pro? it definitely runs osx 64bit- the first gen Intel macs are... Coopertown? They are limited to 32bit by hardware. I'm running a harpertown and a nehalem in 64 bit, so those should run Lion. I'd be more concerned the lion has too much extra crap in it that's problematic for developers- but that's just me talking out of my arse... I'm no developer by any stretch of the imagination.
