On a related note, does Lion delete its own installer once you install it? I don't want to have to download Lion on all of my machines separately, seems as if I should be able to buy it once from the App Store then copy it (does the OS have the same license rules as apps, i.e. n copies? I'm not looking to pirate anything, just want to save download time)
- irons 15y agoThe installer only deletes itself if it's still in /Applications. Copy it to a different partition before you run it.
- wlesieutre 15y agoI'm not sure if it removes it after installing, but you can probably just copy it to another drive beforehand if you're concerned. If authentication is handled like other App Store software, you may have to enter your apple ID and password to run it after it's copied, but there shouldn't be a limit on the number of computers.
