- 20 inch Intel iMac 2 gig ram :)
Hi all,
I am about to take delivery on a new 20 inch iMac tomorrow. My first Mac was a Mac Plus back in 1989 with one meg Ram and a 20 meg external hard drive that weighed about six pounds by itself. Sadly for work purposes I switched to windows and thankfully am now getting this new iMac.
The one thing I think I will miss is google's desktop search which has saved me so much time at both home and the office--saving IM chats, outlook emails, and even text from websites I have visited. Does spotlight come close to the features of google desktop search? Will it index ims and emails or web pages? Google was super quick too--how is the speed of spotlight?
Thanks in advance.
