This is not the windows you are looking for.

I've also renamed the computer G6.

@Kriz: Did you buy the upgrade by any chance? Its a download only thing though which is such a bitch for me somewhat if I need a hard disk copy for easy re-installation of a Macintosh system...

My Desktop is classy...

Yup, wouldn't be Lion without Lion.

To re-install Lion (for whatever reason), hold the Option Key on startup and chose to boot from the recovery partition Lion has built in. It will then re-download the OS.

Quite nifty but there is a problem to that, what if the hard drive is dead? I would replace it but to find I need to buy a copy of Snow Leopard and then re-install through the app store again. It seems like a painful process -.-;

Oh Lion you lovable lolcow you. =W=

If the entire HD is dead, Apple should be replacing it.

Lion can be installed on blank Hardrives though.
If you must... download Lion on one Mac, then go to the app and show package contents, there's a DMG in there. I'm betting you know what to do from that point on.

Yea, there have been instances where people need their Macintosh up and running FAST like this one French film guy I got to work with at the Pittsburgh Film Office. His Macbook got messed up but he couldn't get Apple to fix it for him due to being here in the US and his Macbook from France, my dad and I fixed the problem fast (even though we don't know French) because we knew the interface so well and we had hard disks on hand at the time.
