[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1491549"] Macs don't have registries or susceptibility to viruses and zombie-ware, so the general answer is no. If you will bump the RAM up as far as you can afford and: 1. Routinely make backups of your stuff (Time Machine and other programs can automate this) 2. Leave let's say 15-20 percent of your hard drive available as free space and 3. Download OnyX or other *forum-recommended* utility and run it every once in a while, then: Barring actual mechanical failure, you should get YEARS of trouble-free, lag-free performance. [/QUOTE]
