Keep in mind, after the repair, you will have to re-install any
updates/patches to the OS since that time of the repair disk was made.
Some updates/patches will follow thru, others will be lost and have to be
re-applied.
This does not hold true for third-party apps. They will stay as well as
your personal data.
