OK I have a MacBook with Tiger installed
Have bought Leopard, and am dithering about installing it.
My db says I should back up all my files and do a clean install, but could just do an upgrade and they should be OK. I have a few documents, a couple of Powerpoint presentations and a few albums' worth of I tunes,a couple of hundred photos oh, and all my emails, of course.
I have some CDs, but they're not big enough. No writable dvds in the house. I do have a couple of 2GB memory sticks.
Do I need to back up everything, or should I just install and keep fingers crossed? Do I really need to buy a portable hard drive, or could I get away with DVDs (don't know how much data they hold . I couldn't work out if I could put the music onto the memory sticks last night, but it's all on my iPod...so if I did a clean install could I put the music back from there?
Any one know the answer?
