Good luck! I hope you're able to find an SL disc somewhere. I totally agree with you about Lion. If I had it to do over, I never would have purchased it.

Unfortunately, I don't have a Snow Leopard backup. I guess I'm going to have to buy a Îretale Snow Leopard DVD and do a completely clean install. Ah well, it'll be worth it!

Another reason for > downgrading is that the driver for my Roland SonicCell, which is a MIDI sound module, is only compatible with Snow Leopard or earlier. By the looks of it, Roland hasn't released an updated driver for it yet, and I can't afford to sit around and wait for that to happen.
