OT: I want to buy Lion

So how do you download lion from the App store when all you have is Leopard or even Tiger? I do not think (perhaps I am wrong) that the App Store shows up in Leopard. Only Snow Leopard. And are you saying that Lion will install over top of an OS that is NOT Snow Leopard? This seems to contradict what I have been hearing about it, but I cannot test all this as I am already running Snow Leopard and don't want to upgrade to Lion, at least not yet.
