- 2 iMacs 17+20" 2.16GHz 2GB RAM 500MB HDD 256MB Graphic card. 60Gig 5th gen iPod with Video
I sat watching the demo videos on Apples own site And I got to thinking that when Vista came out the biggest Grip I heard about it was that if your machine had 1 gig ram it would almost be too slow to use.
What with all this lovely eye candy Leopard has what about performance in the real world ? Or is the OS in some way more in tune to the hardware it being from the same Company.
I was thinking if you used the web clip feature to make a widget what performance drop would you get with say five widgets ? And all this while you are using the cover flow feature to watch a video ? Difficult to answer as yet I know.
So the big question will the 1 gig RAM on my sons iMac cope ? Or will I need to Budget for more RAM ? Yes I suppose will be the answer
What are the "Units" thoughts ?
