So I am looking to upgrade to Lion for both my MacBook and iMac. My MacBook is running 10.6.8 and my iMac is running 10.5.8. Obviously I need to get snow leopard loaded to this before I upgrade it to Lion. Is there a way to get the Snow Leopard loaded from my MacBook? I guess I should also add that I do not have the Snow Leopard installation disc either.

Nope. You need to buy the Snow Leopard retail DVD from Apple on line. It's only $29.99. You really need the disk in order to do any kind of trouble shooting or in the event you have to reinstall.

couldnt he download Lion on his macbook and burn it in a DVD to install on the iMac? it would have to be a clean install I think.

Yes, he could also do it that way.
