    Anyone know where to get a replacement disc/ISO for 10.6.6 ? Can't order it in store and can't find it online for purchase.

    The 2011's come with 10.6.6 and I need to do a reinstall and don't have the disc. Apple doesn't have replacement SKU's for this yet.

    They can't confirm whether a 10.6.3 disc will reinstall, does anyone know or can anyone test? Thanks!

    Call technical support. They will put you through to an individual who take your order for a replacement disc. The cost will be nominal, perhaps a little more than shipping.

    I once got a replacement disk for my system just by coming in with my MBP to an Apple store.

    They just checked my system (make sure everything was legit) then handed me a replacement dvd.

    Took all of 10min in the store (plus the 1 hour drive there and back)

    I was able to get everything resolved, the 13" and 15" MBP discs work on each other, just used a friend's.
