Hey guys.
Just like the title implies - 2010 i5 MBP, 4gigs RAM, 500gig HDD, 10.6.8.
I am on vaca halfway across the country so do not have access to install discs Everything was working fine, and then Saturday came along and I wanted to watch my football game (SC/ECU...obviously not playing in Colorado ;P) and ESPN3 prompted me to upgrade flash, which I did. Now everything is slow as molasses. I've tried uninstalling flash, which I initially believed to be the culprit, but no joy. It now boots like an old Windows machine (i.e. VERY SLOWLY) , and when it finally DOES boot, everything moves very slowly, and I get pinwheels every 10-15 seconds. Was thinking about upgrading to Lion anyway, and I started the download last night...think a clean install might be a good idea?
