[QUOTE="rcottere, post: 52452"] I'm a Slackware user but i decided to buy a new Imac because OSX looks so cool. The only problem it's a bit laggy on OSX. The Dock is a bit laggy and it really shows when I am typing something in iChat or OpenOffice. There is lag between the keystrokes and when the words appear on the screen. When i was running Virtual PC (Windows XP, you can't wine everything) it takes a good five minutes to boot and the mouse is very slow (I upped to ram to 320 and the vram to 16 on the virtual pc). Is there something that might be running in the background that eats memory or something. [/QUOTE]
