[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1196847"] kfander: I'm sorry to hear that your Mac is running poorly. I'm not sure if you ever mentioned doing what's commonly called a "nuke and pave" -- ie backing up your stuff, low-level erasing of the hard drive and fresh system install followed by a restore of your stuff. Unless the machine has a bad hard drive, this usually works as a universal cure. Given the stupid-cheap prices of hard drives these days, you might also consider just flat-out replacing the hard drive. Even if that doesn't help (but I can't imagine that it wouldn't), it's a very inexpensive thing to do. [/QUOTE]
