Thanks! In that case, I'll probably try to get it as soon as it comes out. I wish I had a spare drive for backing up Lion, but since that's not in the budget, I'll just assume that everything will go smoothly. It worked out well enough with Lion last year, although I'm glad I had a drive for backing up SL. I don't feel that same need to have a backup this year. I guess my logic is that if ML ends up being too terrible, I've still got SL to fall back on; not too much I'd miss about Lion specifically.

Hi, Nope, you can update to Mountain Lion just fine. The drivers and so-forth are completely separate, so you shouldn't encounter any issues. I can't think of any, anyway. It'll still boot into Windows as expected, and you can still set startup disks, etc. Regards, Nicolai On Jul 25, 2012, at 1:18 PM, Missy Hoppe wrote: > Good morning, all!

There are still a few things I use SL for, most noteably add text to spoken track; I was never able to get that working as expected under Lion. > Anyway, if anyone knows whether updating will have any effect on > bootcamp, I would really appreciate it.
