Apprehensions over volume upgrades pacified by Apple

The software giant Apple has implied as how the corporate and the education customers can promote Macs to Lion.The deployment process was explained by Apple for volume licenses like schools, universities and businesses.


The IT professionals hailing from both the education and business sector has queried the decision of Apple about the upgraded Max OS 10.7 distribution exclusively through Mac App Store .They disagree that it will take a lot of time to Lion copies into every pc.


Earlier when Apple  announced the Lion’s availability and price a client  termed the sole distribution of Mac App store as an “absolute bleeding’ nightmare” 


To distribute Lion to volume license customers, Apple depends on Mac App Store .This will allow the customers to download the upgrade for one time and make the installer run on each Mac.


The business organization can buy a smallest amount of 20 licensed Lion copies each at a price value of $29.99. On the other hand at a price of $39 the educational institutions will purchase the “the Mac software collection” that has 25 licenses as minimum order.


The collection comprises of Lion and the recent iWork and iLife suites. When evaluated with the present price of snow based leopard collection, the Lion’s educational pricing will be somewhat high.


It was notified by Apple that the updates of Lion will arrive continuously by means of the Software Update mechanism bypassing Mac App Store .The Mac App Store deals with other software’s upgrades and updates.


This eradicates the necessity of every Mac in a network to include a linked Apple ID.
