I know there are threads about this, but I did not see one that answered my questions. I have 1GB of RAM, and it seems at least half is always consumed. Right now, while running Firefox, 700MB are being used. I went to terminal and typed "top" to see what is using what, but the numbers don't seem to add up. I just bought this mac used (although it seems to have been restored to original) and will be using some memory hungry programs (creative suite and macromedia studio), so if I'm using 3/4 of available memory just to start up and run a web browser, will it be able to handle other things? If this topic was covered before, I apologize. By the way, I love my mac!!! Thanks in advance.
