[QUOTE="jschackai, post: 1409147, member: 254212"] 8 GB Ram, HD has 121 Gigs available. I usually have (safari, mail, acrobat, iCal, iPhoto, vectorworks--six or seven, sometimes 8 apps open at the same time. When I see things slowing down, I often shut down all the apps I have open, except for the needed one, but I see no difference. Sometimes I use the computer six or less hours per day(I have a MacBook Pro that I use a lot too). I do no gaming whatsoever. Your question about how many apps are open at one time may be right on target. I have always had many apps open simultaneously. Maybe I should use this computer for only two apps at a time: vectorworks (CAD program with sometimes 25 mb files) and iPhoto; or vectorworks and adobe acrobat; or vectorworks and preview; or vectorworks and safari.
