Iona,

2. VO using Fred has been started.
3. Now it's time to start the reinstall process
Hi Ioana, and Teresa,
Because of a message by Ricardo Walker,I now know I forgot to mention a simpler
option. If lion is already installed Iona, you could also reinstall a clean
lion from the recovery partition. When lion installs, not only will it simply

Hi Iona,
I don't think you need the apple id of the previous owner. However, you do need
