[QUOTE="feistyblue, post: 689320, member: 56680"] I pretty much spend all day during office hours on the internet as run 3 online businesses. I spend a lot of time downloading and resizing and working on product images. I tend to have 10 separate pop3 e-mail accounts in Thunderbird on my desktop and download and reply to hundreds of e-mails a day, many of which are heavy on the MB due to product image attachment etc. I can work on anything up to 60 product images a day. When I first switch on my desktop in the mornings I like my mail to be downloaded asap as there is always so much of it - have really noticed that my MacBook is quicker than my Dell at this too. All my new product uploads, plus product stock uploads to Amazon, my websites and eBay are done via the net. So fast loading of pages to enable me to spend several hours a day working on the back end of my websites is essential. I notice that my MacBook loads the same pages much quicker than my Dell, even though my Dell has more RAM etc. I can be quite a heavy user of of Word, Excel etc. Internet useage and opening apps on my dad's G5 seems a lot slower than on my MacBook.
