Should I change the name..?
It's a good year since my MacBook AIR arrived, and now my PC's have been replaced by a second 21.5" iMac, and relegated to 'downstairs'..
The new iMac has been named 'New Snow iMac' so it can easily be found among the many backup partitions on the five WD Passport portable drives, which I rotate on a manual basis.
Growl used to help me keep track of things, but it dropped MailMe when Snow Leopard came out :( Now I use MindNode Pro to keep track of things until Growl sorts itself out.
One of the advantages of getting a 2nd iMac has been the opportunity to erase and reinstall Snow Leopard to one of the partitions. A few 'odd' things had been happening, and now the 'Old Snow iMac' has been rejuvenated, and slimmed back to around 20 GB.
The problems have gone, though I keep finding small things were forgotten by my quick decision to do the erase..
