Apple has just released OS X Lion on the Mac App Store. But there’s one problem, it is only available on the Mac App Store, which means that you have to download it on all of your Macs separately one at a time.

Do you have a large monitor? Ever wished you could save time by not having to move your mouse as much around the screen?
