[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1640534, member: 56379"] If this were the case…then all the folks who do an upgrade to Yosemite or other OS versions that they don't like…could easily "downgrade" back to whatever previous OS they had installed. But it doesn't work this way. That's why we have quite a number of threads from folks wanting to downgrade. We always say…it's easy to upgrade…but a pain in the butt to downgrade. I guess this is one of the things different from Windows.;) This could be done on a Mac…but the person doing the installing would need to partition the HD properly AHEAD OF TIME. Then install the new OS on the new partition…leaving the old OS alone on the other partition. Bottom line (as mentioned earlier). The current owner needs to purchase a Snow Leopard install disk to install Snow Leopard on the computer. - Nick [/QUOTE]
