Hi! Before I installed lion, I backed up my SL install to an external drive using Carbon Copy cloner. Once I discovered that I wasn't happy with lion, I reformatted my macbook's internal drive and used CCC to get snow leopard back onto it. If you didn't make a backup, though, I'm assuming you could use a snow leopard DVD and accomplish essentially the same thing; only difference being that you'd have to reinstall all your other software. I guess my point is that going back to SL should be reasonably simple. I am more or less clueless about the mac, and I managed it. (smile) Missy

There are a number of things in Lion that are seriously irritating me, one of which is that my computer came preinstalled with it and, because Lion is only available through the app store or on an external hard drive, I can't reinstall without an Internet connection if I ever run into problems. Also, I prefer the way VoiceOver handles certain pronunciations and inflections in Snow Leopard. Another reason for downgrading is that the driver for my Roland SonicCell, which is a MIDI sound module, is only compatible with Snow Leopard or earlier. By the looks of it, Roland hasn't released an updated driver for it yet, and I can't afford to sit around and wait for that to happen. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
