Hello Andrew,

I guess I learn something new everyday.  I didn't know that fact.  I assume that iDVD also came with the original disk with my iMac package.  I will probably upgrade to 10.7 before next June as I do want to keep my .mac account.  Does the iCloud/Me/Mac.com need to have OS 10.7 to use email?  That is what I though it said in the Apple site under requirements for the new iCloud.  I'm not very interested in the syncing part because I don't have all of those portable units like the iPhone, iPad ect.  I wish they would at least separate the ones that are mobile from the ones that are not. 

My Aether is working A-OK...

If you do a clean install of Lion itself, you won't get iPhoto, but you can always (re)install it from the disk that came with your Mac. The latest version of iPhoto is also available on the Mac App Store for $20 or so.
