Has any member here performed a software downgrade from the pre-installed Lion 10.7.2 to Snow leopard 10.6.8 on any late-2011 MacBook Pro (any size) and if it was successful or failed and what you found? Thank you.
so I've found some workarounds to install Snow Leopard on a mid-2011 MBA and a late-2011 MBP and when I get the MBP next week,
And I believe you'll need SL 10.6.7 as a minimum. And I wonder if Apple still supplies the Rosetta add-on download that many apps needed to work properly???
Rosetta is included on the Snow Leopard CD. He can still purchase that from Apple for $19.95.
