I believe I heard it was only going to be available through the Mac App store, and one would have to burn their own backup cd. Either that, or given your Apple Id and password, iCloud could do the reinstall. Carolyn On Jun 6, 2011, at 5:50 PM, erik burggraaf wrote: > They're giving you a resto

Ray, Accessibility is absolutely not going to be effected. Booting off of a recovery partition will be no different than booting off of the install Dvd. Windows laptops have come with recovery partitions for years, and they usually have an applet that will make a set of backup DVD's for you i

I would think the recovery mode would be accessible. However you boot in to that, once it's booted, pressing command f5 as usual should do the trick, it would be a major step backwards if that doesn't work. On Jun 6, 2011, at 7:48 PM, Ray Foret Jr wrote: > The strong implication was that no disk
