[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 620761, member: 21101"] You're asking 3 different questions there. Did you get ripped off? Nope, but you were perhaps unlucky to buy a machine right on the cusp of a new one being released. I think you could get it exchanged, but I know that many schools have a very strict 'no return' policy (NYU does). Considering the saving you got, it's hardly surprising. As for the slow down, as soon as you start adding applications and updates, the system gets a little slower. Startup times are always the 1st to become affected. Unless the system is noticeably slower AFTER boot up, I would not worry. Leopard does some house-keeping on startup and shutdown, so this is fairly normal. [/QUOTE]
