The thing that may upset a lot of people is fs's overbearing and attempts to squish inovation that doesn't come to them first. I really don't care if they make money but at the same time they shouldn't be peeing in everyone elses cornflakes either. On 25-Aug-09, at 1:54 PM, Rich Ring wrote:

I agree with Anna, here. It's really annoying to have to copy and paste files, and then have to go back to the original and delete it. Cut and paste is much more efficient, and I'd sacrifice the danger factor. It just means you have to be a bit more careful. Donna -Original

The menu option isn't there, but the way I plan to do it is, boot from the dvd, go to utilities and choose disk utility, erase the drive, then install the new operating system. Of course, before I do this, I will do a complete backup to my external hard drive, and I already have backups
