BRAND NEW MAC USER...KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT MAC!! LEARNING THROUGH FIRE-HOSE TECHNIQUE.
I just purchased a early model 2008 MBP and ordered 250gb SSD. I have 10.6 dmg from original owner.
I want to do a fresh install. I have no idea what he had or did on previous HDD so I do not want to copy/clone original HDD.
I know 10.6 is a solid build from readying the threads here so I prefer to start there and will update to later version once I get the hang of what the heck I am even doing. SOOOOO LOST right now but LOVE it already. I WILL master MBP by the weekend. I'm a long time PC user with two Computer Science(BS and MS) degrees so I REFUSE to be beat..LOL
Can someone just point me in the right direction. If you know the easy way, then I would love to hear it but if you know where I can find it, I appreciate that also.
