I'll be dropping in a new HD oneday soon and giving it a tryout to see if'n the installer does indeed allow it, altho now am concerned whether the fresh X.2 will require a bootup and DU run prior to the X.3 upgrade being applied or not, but will see one way or another on that. I might just wait a lil' bit to see if'n a X.3.9 combo update DownLoad becomes available first, wonderin' 'cause the new Safari is all locked into the System Preferences/Software Update w/o a DL found yet(anyone have a uRL for it's DL handy?), and to then give it a go as a 3-step-do before finally attaching the Cat-5 Ether up to the LAN and beyond. Might you or anyone have any more ideas/advice along these lines of for simplicity's sake/timesaving thought?? Once again TIA.
