I will just upgrade as well, as usual.

hikeNM said:I've never used CCC to backup anything. Does it just make a copy of your hard drive?
rendezvouscp said:Yup. I find it pretty easy to get a drive, use CCC, and then format it. Nice, easy, simple. Then I have a copy if I need to go back, and I can move my files back onto the new system. That's how I usually do it.
The nice thing about your copy using CCC is that it can be bootable, whether on another drive or disc. It's a very handy utility, imo.

Soulstorm said:sorry for the newbish question, but what is CCC???
1. I'm not that careful about upgradingBWhaler said:My Steps:
1. Buy a copy of Tiger from the Apple store on the day it is released.
2. Install it on a non essential Mac using the upgrade option
3. Waste the whole day playing with Tiger
4. Post on the Mac boards about my experience. Read about others.
Then, based on the reports I read online and my experiences, I'll upgrade more essential machines doing a clean install on each of them.
