Hi guys,
I just bought a 2009 Macbook pro (13" , 2.26MHZ ,2GB) from ebay and I will be getting it in the next couple of days.It comes without any installation disks with 10.5 leopard already installed.
And I found out that it is possible to upgrade to Snow leopard by just buying a copy from amazom for £22. Although I have few questions.
1. I don't know whether my laptop has got a genuine copy of leopard (I hope it is). If not, is it still possible to upgrade to SL from the £22 amazon disks?
2. Is it possible to create a recovery disk from the current installation ?
3. If I decide to go back to 10.5 ,can I do it without buying a new copy of 10.5? can I borrow 10.5 from somebody else ?
4. 10.5 costs around £150 vs 10.6 costs £22 ,Why is older version expensive than 10.6? I thought it should be the other way around.
This is my first OS x experience .I've been PC user for all this time.
thanks in advance
