[QUOTE="bryphotoguy, post: 506778, member: 26695"] Possibly updating to 10.4.10 might help. But you are comparing a 1.8GHz system to a 1.6GHz system. The difference in processor speeds is so insignificant. 4GB RAM won't help in anyway if you only use 1GB with Illustrator. The extra 3GB won't make the computer run faster. The 10k HD should make load times faster though. How long is your boot time? Seriously, I want you to power it on and use the stopwatch feature on your phone or something. Download menu meters or istat pro. How much of your processor and RAM is being used at idle? while using Illustrator? while internet surfing? [/QUOTE]
