We told you yesterday that Apple had released an update to Lion in Software Update. Version 10.7.1 of Lion fixes several bugs and compatibility issues.
Lion has just now been updated to version 10.7.1 in the Mac App Store, and this news indicates a system for how Lion updates will most likely be pushed to users from now on.
Due to the fact that OS X Lion was the first OS to only be initially available in the Mac App Store, users wondered if Apple would push updates to the OS in the Mac App Store exclusively, or in both Software Update and the Mac App Store.
Lion has been updated in the Mac App Store today, while the same update was pushed in Software Update yesterday. This indicates a pattern that Apple will most likely push delta updates to users through Software Update first, and then update Lion in the Mac App Store shortly after.
While you can still download Lion as a 4GB installer from the Mac App Store for $30, Apple is also offering Lion USB install disks for $69.

I just paíd $20.82 for an íPad 2.64GB and my boyfriend loves his Panasoníc Lumíx GF 1 Cámera that we got for $38.79 there arriving tomorrow by UP S.I will never pay such expensive retail príces in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 40 inch LCD T V to my boss for $657 which only cost me $62.81 to buy.

Wait, what? Lion 10.7.1 is available for a couple of days, what was updated yesterday was iTunes, wasn’t it?
Wow so I guess it just updated without my even doing anything….

I’m thinking pushed means it installed itself. Im running 10.7.1 and I didn’t do an update.

Software Update had an update almost a week ago. The version in the App Store is what will be installed on peoples computers who buy it from here on, until the next update comes.
No… you told us yesterday that Apple had released an update to iTunes. Lion was like last week.

It’s about time 10.7.1 was available through the App Store. I wonder what took Apple so long?
