Hi Sam,

I wouldn't suggest it. My partner did it and the result is a more flaky Leopard than mine. Allison (of Nosillacast fame) also ran into problems doing an upgrade and ended up doing a fresh install afterwards.

Personally, I love starting over every year or two so I can get rid of all those app I installed thinking they were cool but never used. When I start over I don't install any software till I need it. After a month you have everything that you actually use back and you'll be shocked how much junk you'd accumulated on your old system.

Bart.
