I've been looking into ways to totally clean out my mac and speed it
up. I then thought to upgrade to the later version snow leopard, as
ive run 10.5 on this MacBook since I got it years ago, and it seems a
logical move for improvement of speed/better functioning.
Can I ask what's involved in changing my os, ie will I need to back
up, and, unless I choose to restore everything, will it leave me with
a 'blank canvas' so to speak, with none of the old stuff thats on my
mac currently, therefore no need for the cleaning up of old files, log
files, repairing disk etc?
I'm sure there is a thread lurking in this forum all about this, I am just using the wrong search terms.. could someone post a link or help me out?
Thanks!
