A company that paid for 500K more eyeballs may get surprised if Tiger is
a huge hit and 5M eyeballs all show up at 3 minutes past the hour.
Fortunately, not everybody will install it the first 12 hours, so there
should be enough ramp-up time so the sites (which presumably have plenty
of spare kloo) will have time to make arrangements for the slashdotting..
Personally, I'd be surprised indeed if it makes more of a blip than Microsoft's
auto-update right after Patch Tuesday goes out each month, and I've heard naught
on here saying that *that* is an issue...
