[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1819262, member: 56379"] Good deal...great to hear it.:) As you've experienced recently...it seems your Late 2012 iMac is capable of still providing acceptable performance for your needs. If you experience slowdowns in the near future...I would venture to guess that those would be due to: - asking the computer to do too much at one time - something was installed that slowed things down - computer needs some periodic maintenance - might just need to be rebooted ...and not the computer hardware itself. Since as you've experienced...usually the more recent slowdowns we've discussed...were something software, maintenance, or OS related. No need to spend big $$$/£££ quite yet!;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
