The default install is now an A&R. Apple has gotten rid of the 'Upgrade' option, and is more selective about things it saves it the 'Previous Systems' folder, and IIRC, (I don't have an upgraded system handy to check) calls it something else now. However I've done the install on several systems now and users here have done quite a few more and no one's had any issues with lost data or anything. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
