Re: LIVECODE running in LION

I'll agree that's what it sounds like. Though it's not THAT much of a coincidence. Installing a new OS does a LOT of reading and writing to the drive, including a lot of writing to sectors that are usually fairly static when just using the OS. It's probably more likely for a drive to fail under th

Re: LIVECODE running in LION

I think we were warned by Apple Dev that Lion is a beta and to dedicate a partition or drive for the testing, which is what I did. People on laptops are outa luck, it's probably hard to 'undo'. We theoretically shouldn't be talking about it, draconian NDA and all that. On 8 June 2011 09:59, Colin
