If Lion is baffling the Forums' experts, maybe I should not feel so bad.
On the other hand, my not having a clue what is being talked about (eg, restore partitions and virtually everything else in that post), merely increases my anxiety level.
I couldn't figure out what was going on with OS X when it was first introduced (which is why I declined getting involved) and I sure as sh*t don't know what's going on now.
