[QUOTE="MYmacROX, post: 897684, member: 92466"] After much apprehension I made the upgrade today. Did a SuperDuper! HD clone and TM backup first. Already did disk repairs and permissions last week. The install went smoothly. Around 45 minutes for the actual upgrade. Installed a few of the apps/extras (1 gb worth). Ended up gaining 24+ gb of HD space. :D The new SL TM backup took a little longer than usual - 8 gb of changes to backup. Everything is snappier, all apps work, no "incompatible applications" folder in existence, QT10.0 works fine, tested "trimming" a movie clip and it was easy as pie, and my OO 3.1 works like it should. So I'm a happy camper! :D Just gotta say "THANKS!" to everyone who gave advice and helped answer questions through the whole thing. My first EVER OS upgrade so anxiety was high and caution was Red Alert. Glad that's over. Maybe some day out of sheer boredom I may attempt a "fresh" install. :Oops: [/QUOTE]
