John, I have Growl V1.1.4 is this an old version? 
Unfortunately I don't have my Apple ID setup to make purchases such as apps 
music etc so at present I can't purchase the latest version. Going to have to 
convince my mum though and get it sorted out at the Apple store where I brought 
my Mac. LOL 
So if I'm out of luck, can you or others explain how Growl works with dropbox 
on the Mac? 
Oh and just a thought, when Mountain Lion comes out, will Notification Center 
take care of dropbox? I know know can say but just wondering if that would 
work. 

Thanks
