Gawd 'elp us!!! I just updated a new (used - ain't eBay marvellous?) laptop to OS X.6.3 with the auto software update download this very day. Nearly 800+ MB. Oh well, the same again but this time I'm downloading the combo package to apply to all three machines (we have one more to update from X.6.2). Just under 900 MB. When will it end? Remember OS 7.5? ;-) Cheers, Geoff Geoffrey Heard Publisher, Editor, Business Writer The Worsley Press FREE Bonus book offer.
