Jul 29, 2012 4:40 AM in response to mende1by swim2birds,Thanks for the responses, but they really don't get me any further because they don't contain anything that I couldn't have inferred myself. I've been developing software for nearly thirty years and just because Lion won't be using this particular feature doesn't mean the change won't break something else.
What I really need is an assurance from Apple that this update has been fully tested on Lion.
I don't have a compelling need for this Power Nap feature so I won't install this update for the moment, unless Apple issues the assurance.
