Mac OS X Leopard on Oct 26

Yesterday I make up my mind to wait for Leopard, today I check the apple's online web store, and find that it is updated, the great news is Oct 26 it will be released, in about 2 weeks! Originally I thought it would be Oct 31, because of a mac guy's point -- it is said to released at October, but doesn't mean Oct 1 or Oct 2, most likely it could be on Oct 31. Now the question to me is how long I can see it with a new MacBook on a store of FutureShop or BestBuy. At Oct 27?
