The Take Control book says that you want to lst download the Lion then go to your Applications folder and find it and copy it over to other media [DVD, thumb drive or whatever] adn use that to update the other computers= that's what I did = put InstallLion on a thumb drive and take it to the MacbookPro and it installed just fine without yet another downlaod

This pissed me off - I wanted to use that same installer on my other machine and not suffer through another download. Why would Apple do it like this?
