Hi! So I got my Macbook in November 2007. I couldn't be happier. But... it has become EXTREMELY slow. When typing, it will often "delay" and take a couple minutes for the type to show up. It takes minutes for programs to open and often times my Safari will freeze temporarily when trying to switch between tabs. I think I have the rotating multi-colored circle more than an actual arrow. Now, I have no idea what could be causing this but I am thinking maybe the memory?
I have iStat and my memory section reads as follows...
Wired: 299MB
Active: 385MB
Inactive: 148MB
Free: 187MB (has been as low as 17!)
Would this have anything to do with it? If not... has anyone else experienced this problem? I have AppleCare and am considering taking it in at the end of the school semester to see what sort of "diagnostics" test they can run.
But if anyone has any experience with this I would appreciate any help!
