I recently decided to purchase the OSX Lion. I am planning to try to dual boot this with Snow leopard so that i have something to fall back to.

Can anyone comment how the Lion works on a late 2009 13 inch MBP?
This is a 2.53 Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4GB Ram, 320GBHDD MBP.
My MBP is still very solid and healthy so am thinking of letting it run for a couple of more years.

I recently actually reinstalled snow leopard to try to clean of the grime i have accumulated over 2 yrs. My biggest issue is to get all the necessary data back, but leave out the unnecessary ones.
For eg., i have had to separately copy itunes folders, addressbook, mail folders, firefox data etc.,
Again this is because i dont want to get back all the old time machine stuff as i want a like new system with only data i want, but nothing more.

Does anyone know if there are Apps that can selectively restore such data? Like maybe recognizes popular apps and restores these from time machine along with their data?
Or is there an uninstaller sort of app that will work like Windows, and clean the app and its data?
