	Well they could bootstrap a compiler! No?
	I have been around Apple for a long time. MPW was not for free!

	Maybe, like I said Lion will have Xcode bundled in or they might sell Lion with out, because most
	do not need it. As a developer you can download Lion beta for free, yet you can buy it in the Mac
	APP Store! So it just be a pre-release thingy, or Apple is just testing what the reactions might be.
	Only time will tell!??
