Apple employees will reportedly be working overnight again on Tuesday to prepare for Mac OS X Lion, according to 9to5Mac.

In the employee halls of the retail chain sit large tubes that hold new posters for both front of store posters and posters within the store. Additionally, we're hearing that each store has been sent a Lion-packing Mac Pro for an unknown purpose.
