I thought it may be safe to update my music iMac to Yosemite and Air to 2.1.3 (I think that was it) by now. My laptop has been updated for a while, though I do not use it with Air all that often.
I got a noise a bit like a pulse jet after a while. I had already had some hesitations.
I am rebuilding the system back to Mavericks (which I like less than Snow Leopard but that backup is too old) from yesterday's Time Machine backup.
7 hours to go...
No more software update/downgrades for me.
