[QUOTE="Janus 006, post: 997138, member: 141343"] Yeah, definitely upgrade your RAM. I was running a 2007 new Macbook on 1 GB for a while and my computer crawled. Just having Firefox and one other app running would leave me with less than 25 MB on many occasions. I recently bought 2 2GB sticks from Amazon: [URL='http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001265GI2/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Amazon.com: Kingston Apple 4GB Kit (2x2GB Modules) 667MHz DDR2 SoDimm iMac and Macbook Memory (KTA-MB667K2/4GR): Electronics[/url] I'm not sure if that will work on your machine, given that it's older, so make sure to check. Also, I have a Seagate 1.5 TB drive. Picked it up at Costco for around $100. Great deal, works like a charm. It only supports USB 2.0 (no firewire), but I don't mind. Some people have complained about the model I bought, but it has worked fine for me so far. [/QUOTE]
