How does installing a new version of Mac OS X work?
I want to buy the new version of Mac OS X when it releases, but wanted to know a few things:
1. Does installing a new OS erase my Hard Drive?
2. When I install the new OS, will it erase the old OS from my system?
3. Is an Operating System stored on the Hard Drive?
PLEASE HELP.
How do I stop my Mac OS X from copying Microsoft documents onto my desktop?
I have a Mac OS X operating system. Every time I view a Microsoft document, (word, excel, ppt) it places a copy of the document on my desktop. Is there a preference that I can turn this off? It really crowds up my desktop when I am viewing several documents off the internet or through my email.
How do I get a Mac OS X Leopard to run from an external hard drive on a Windows Computer?
I recently installed Mac OS X on an external hard drive.
I wish to boot it on a Windows computer,

but it’s not loading, the only visible object on the monitor is a blinking underscore key.
What do you use the Mac OS Disc for after you use bootcamp to install vista?
Okay, I installed Vista onto a partitioned section of my Mac OS X 10.5.8 using boot camp. But there are no installed drivers for things like internet wireless.
Everything I searched says you need disc 1 of the Mac OS installation and I have it. But what do you do with it?
Do you boot the Vista Side then pop in the disc?
Do you pop in the disc right after booting and do some configuration or something?
Or do you install it on the Mac side?
Ideas?

Thanks for the third answer, which I gave a thumbs up. The other 2 people were sadly misinformed, and lacking knowledge, the 4th is not me, so what is worth my time, and money, is up to me. I shall repost the question.
