[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 894764, member: 71075"] I would like to suggest that anyone who has any "hacks"/workarounds installed consider removing them so as to mitigate any problems you may encounter during the upgrade. I frequently read that troubles during an install can be caused by these little hacks that, while they work for your current install, can cause havoc during the upgrade process. This can be seen in Engadget's review of SL. While it has already been stated, I would like to attest to the importance of making backups. I can't (and I'm sure many others will agree) stress enough that making backups is absolutely essential. I would highly recommend that if you don't have an external HD already, you consider postponing the upgrade until a means of backing up your data is in place. [/QUOTE]
