Thanks for the input on Leopard - of course I ordered it, paid for a large part with my iphone credit - installed yesterday. While the initial install estimate was 2 hours, mine installed in a little more than an hour - I just kept walking by and checking it.
I love the time machine feature - bought an external drive today and I'm backing up right now - I wouldn't have done this so quickly, but last night in my excitement to check out Leopard I spilled a half cup of coffee on my wireless keyboard - so off to the Apple store this morning for a replace WITH a keyboard cover - you live, you learn.
R....would you invite me to one of your groups? It's a feature I'm not familiar with either.
I use mac.com - iweb makes creating a website easy enough for dummies like me, so it is very worth it!
I still have a lot to learn on the mac and Leopard!
