Hi every one, I would really like to purchase Lion. However, I am getting lots of people saying that you can just upgrade from Snow Leopard, but I have been waiting for quite some time thinking that when Lion came out, I would have the opportunity to do a clean install. If this is indeed possible, can some one please outline the steps for me? I am quite new to mac, and don't really understand terminal, how to choose the correct file format for the hard drive etc, I have not used my mac in quite a few weeks since little things frustraight me such as, I can't seem to select contiguous or none contiguous files reliably in finder windows? I can't remove attachments in gmail for example if I change my mind after attaching a file, and don't want to send it any more. These things are so easy in windows. I know it's just that I just don't know how to do it on the mac, and not the os it self. I am willing to give the whole mac thing another try, but I would like my mac to be clean to start with. Just like if I turned it on for the first time after taking it out of the box. I am hoping to really do a clean install of Lion. I would really appreciate it if some one could walk me through the process. Also, if any one could help me with the other 2 questions above, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance for any help.
