[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1299572, member: 56379"] Nope...you don't have to do this if you don't want to. Also (as I advised above)...you NEED to verify what OS versions your software is compatible with FIRST...BEFORE deciding on which OS to upgrade to. Currently your programs are compatible with OS 10.4.11 (remembering that OS 10.4 was discontinued 4 years ago). So depending on the age & versions of this software you have: - they could be incompatible with OS 10.5 - there's a good possibility they're NOT compatible with OS 10.6 - and I'm willing to bet that almost all of them will not be compatible with OS 10.7. This is why I'm saying...do your research BEFORE deciding on an OS upgrade...otherwise you may have to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars to upgrade all of your software. - Nick [/QUOTE]
