nope, there was one update took 45 seconds max, downloading the 2 .5gig exe and iso took a while, but i didnt count that in my install time.
anyways, im happy i did, for the student discount price its a good upgrade.

I own multiple Macs and Apple products. I even just recently purchased a 20" Imac G4 on Ebay which is 7 years old just because i thought the styling of that computer is Incredible.
They honestly make great products with awesome software. And visually they're number 1 in my books.
Made the switch 7 years ago and couldn't be happier.
I'm using Windows 7 on all my computers at the office and it definitely is a great improvement over Vista and XP and a leap forward for Microsoft but...

If you ban Nvez for one Mac then i'd be sent to the slaughter house! My place looks like an Apple Store! lol

The cop got out of his car and the kid who was stopped for speeding rolled down his window.
'I've been waiting for you all day,' the cop said.
The kid replied, 'Yeah, well I got here as fast as I could.'
When the cop finally stopped laughing, he sent the kid on his way without a ticket.

If ever I go to a independant mechanic (ie Seb at Bimmershop), what do you think I'll be charged to replace my bulbs, since the wheels have to be taken off and the bulbs are replaced through the wheel wells. ???

I don't know if you ever got winter wheels for your car, if you did and need to change your wheels back in spring, with your new ( slightly used jack) you can do it at that time.

Thanks for not answering my question...

I could do that but this year, since I bought new tires, I went to a tire specialist to change my tires... I also haven't bought all the equipment necessary to change the tires from my main and only set of wheels...

Well, how was I to know you had only 1 set of wheels, LOL ? Anyhow, that aside, Removing the front wheels to change the light bulbs shouldn't take you much time, if you care for the trouble, not that you are jack equipped. Oh, and you need the practice if you are to help me do 12 wheels next spring.....

But seriously, I will look for a DIY on zpost and do it myself since I do now have a jack. It was kind of a dumb question in the first place.

hey guys
all the bulbs came in today, glen i have an extra set of h8 in white for you to try if u want.

sorry guys but i made a slight mistake on price, cause shipping was 120usd...
so instead of 130, its 135 per set.
the white h series bulbs are 35 a set. h3.h8,h11.
sorry for the slight increase, miscalculation.

pickup whenever you want.

on a sidenote, i think these bulbs nare magnificent, ive never seen balasts this finely finished on a bulb under 300 bucks.
curious to hear your thoughts .
