Your post on iMessage Beta seems to lead me into the twilight zone, Don, but just to let you know, iMessage Beta on my MacBook and iMac seems to still work just fine on Lion 10.7, and I also stuck to iOS 5 on my iPhone 4S so that I would still have Google Maps Street View. I can be a curmudgeon too.
