With Windows, the only thing you have authorize is “Windows”. ![]() You have to authorize your Mac first before you can reinstall Lion on “your” Mac. You can clean install Snow Leopaard first. Will Lion still provide a way to make a bootable image in the event that I need to start from scratch? ![]() I’m really exited about Lion, but I’m a bit anxious about the absence of any physical media in the event of a crash where I need to do a clean install. Recently a Mac user emailed Steve Jobs asking about the options for doing a clean install with Mac OS X Lion: So if you are in some remote location where there is no Internet Access or telephone, you can use Windows 7 for a long period of time with ample time to get your installation reactivated.

One of the immediate disadvantages is for people who don’t have a fast enough Internet connection to purchase Mac OS X as a digital download. You can also purchase Windows 7 at almost any electronics store. Microsoft has been offering Windows 7 as a digital download from the Microsoft Store since its debut in 2009. I believe this is more of a disadvantage for Mac OS X Lion, since this is the only way to purchase the new version of Mac OS X.
