Thanks Wolf. Will be doing it Monday. Been getting rid of all the stuff on my external FireWire drive and going to do a Carbon Copy Clone on the system as is once all cleaned up. THEN I will do the OS update.......JUST IN CASE! Wirth my luck with technology lately I want to have some insurance before doing this. The learning curve for P6 seems steep. I know I am going to get frustrated. That is why I want to keep the stuff on my old box so I can cool off in good ole P$ when I get pissed!  LOL
Been talking to the folks at Apple about CD technology and they pretty much killed me when they told me it is NOT Secure. Said after a few years ALL Cd's and DVD's burned on home computers eventually fade their data and fail. something about the dyes fading or something. I am really bummed. Hard Drives are doomed to fail. CD and DVD technology is doomed to fail. Where the frell are we supposed to archive our stuff!?  :(
