Hi guys
Been catching up with the last few episodes here before embarking on the great Snowy upgrade.
BIG thanks to Elaine for her checklist I’ve dutifully filled it in and am quite calm before doing the install but not looking forward to installing all my apps again.
See you on the other side or at least I hope I do.
Oh & thanks to John for finding the spelling I backed that up too 😉
Thanks for all your tips on Snow Leopard, both for preparation and your experiences after installation. I upgraded my Mac this week and it went well. Most of my apps work too. Seems faster all round
