Upgraded to Leopard, want to go back and do a clean install.Soo, I just did a simple upgrade to Leopard a week ago and while I haven't had any real problems, I have noticed that my iMac is running noticeably slower. I think a clean and install could speed things up. My question is that if I were to use Time Machine to back up everything except the system folder would that be a plausible way for me to do a "clean install" and still keep all my documents, emails, media, etc.? And if it is, would I use the migration assistant to bring all my files back or would I have to restore from time machine during the OSX install (keeping in mind that I've excluded the system folder from Time Machine)?
Thanks

Liquid and computers don't mix. It might seem simple, but we see an incredible amount of people post here about spills. Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!
