[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1607297, member: 175845"] [I][B]techiesteve[/B][/I], you beat me to it by a long shot, and you are quite correct. As for an OS X install: For a 10.6.x SL install, that MBPro needs a special SL X 10.6.6 disc if it's an early 2011 MBPro, and if it's a late 2011 MBPro, it will need a special 10.6.7 install disk - IF the late 2011 MBPro even supports it, as it came standard as you say with X 10.7.2 installed. I had to get a special SL 10.6.7 disc for my mid-late 2011 27" iMac which the Apple techs sent me, as they couldn't confirm that it would even work. It did with a bit of install hassles. [/QUOTE]
