[QUOTE="Macman, post: 91713, member: 7132"] buying online is ok, just make sure they are reputable, ask around, crucial ram is not settling, its usually very good. as far as apps, macjanitor, or maintenance, or cocktail, some maintenance app, the os pretty much runs its own maintenance, all you ever have to do is repair permissions after installing updates or apps. dont use onyx or norton products. before you ask, in case, cause most do, there are NO viruses, adware, or spyware on mac, only use antivirus apps if you network with pc's, and if so, dont use nortons. besides that, os x should have most of what basics you need, make sure you turn on the firewall if you want to. also, if you have more than about 100 fonts, dont use fontbook for font management, I love apple, but fontbook is a waste.
