[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 894769, member: 24098"] Good one. I know Unsanity's "Haxies", particularly ShapeShifter, were MAJOR problems going from Tiger to Leopard. In fact, I don't even believe Shapeshifter was ever resurrected for Leopard. Agreed. I have absolutely no sympathy for people that come here after making a major modification to their OS without a backup and whine how their lives are ruined. There was a time that backup devices were prohibitively expensive. The process was cumbersome and the software was terrible. Nowadays, you can train a chimp to do it and external drives are available for less than the cost of a night out at a fancy restaurant. There is no excuse. In fact, the first time I see a thread from someone who has a non-working system following an SL upgrade, my first reply will be "restore from backup". [/QUOTE]
