New charts are posted on Thursdays at www.billboard.com
If Al does get a top 10 debut I recommend everyone buy the magazine when it comes out next Monday. It will be a truly historical event.

Debut: 25
Best chart position: 14 with a bullet
I'm afraid it doesn't seem to work that way anymore. It's often the case with established artists (like Al) that the debut week is the peak week. It's this darn soundscan system they use now. It's not likely it will go higher than it's debut position, because most of the people who really want it, bought it the first week.
But because Al and TBITB relentlessly tour to promote it, i believe it will eventually go platinum no matter how high it gets on the charts.

About when did this start happening? I'm just asking because the jump Dave described is kinda sorta what happened with RWS....and that was just in '99.
