Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Lion install

 

I found nothing but Apple update and combo update links. It's not the
full OS installer.

Full installers for Lion now go through the App store and are just the
one realease Apple wants you to have (for your iPad). Downloads only,
unless you order a stick, or so I have heard.

So if anyone knows how to get an officlal 10.7.3 release, please post.

Yes - 10.7.4 is giving me grief.
