[QUOTE="mldolan, post: 1229804, member: 200469"] i had planned to buy the snow leopard disk just for peace of mind though i thought that that there were some differences in the OEM and retail versions, but i could have heard wrong. I was thinking about loading snow leopard along with some of my more commonly used apps onto an express card ssd, and leaving the HD just for data. I have been reading up on the subject and some folks are claiming a huge boost in performance by doing that. of course snow leopard would also reside on my HD as a backup. I don't mind spending 99.00 for a copy of win 7. but its back to my original post. I have win 7 on a partition on my hard drive but it does not show up, unless I go through parallels, I cant boot into it, there is no icon for it, and the disk utility acts like it isn't even there. I see one partition for macintosh HD in blue and a lot of white space underneath. its like there is an invisible partition on my HD, and win 7 is hiding in there. [/QUOTE]
