[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1386112, member: 56379"] As I mentioned...watching You-Tube videos is just one example...and the older the computer...generally the higher the cpu usage. Various results for flash player watching the same video (cpu usage): - 2009 Mac Pro - 35% - 2008 MacBook Pro - 60% - 2007 MacBook Pro - 70% I'm sure amount of ram & type of gpu play a factor. Also...full screen vs. small window...HD video vs. non-HD. There are other things that can also cause high-cpu usage on the internet as well. Watching You-Tube videos is just one. - Nick [/QUOTE]
