Chris There are "Skip" buttons whereby you can do the install if you don't have a network connection. Also, there has been much talk on this list recently about installing via flash media. So yes, of course you can install your OS without an Internet connection. Gordon On 3 Aug 2012, at 19:

Hi Mike, and Chris it's also worth pointing out that Microsoft also assumes Internet connectivity when installing Windows. Unless you have a volume license, you need to activate it at some point. So, tel me, what's the difference? Gordon Gordon On 3 Aug 2012, at 20:22, Mike Welty wrote:

Hello Mark: You could also hit command-r, then hit the power button. Wait a couple of seconds, and after a bit hit command-F5 which will bring up VO. Next do command-q and you should be presented a startup disk. Or to make things really simple, if in Lion, system preference and startup disk.
