[QUOTE="fasheezy, post: 98377, member: 818"] yeah, this is a problem with Macs(maybe Powerbooks in particular). two of my friends who have better or equal specs as my powerbook have noticed the same thing. my gf has a Dell that's older than my powerbook and her pages load almost instantaneously, but on the powerbook it'll take about 4-6 seconds. it's not too big of a problem, but PC's are much faster at loading web pages. and i don't know why people who post here say different, b/c it's not true. you can use safari or firefox, clear out your cache, repair disk permissions or whatever else you can think of, but it won't help. using safari or firefox will never get you even close to the speeds that a PC will load the web page. people should just live with the fact that powerbooks are not these blazing fast laptops, but they're not the slowest either. they're a good midrange speed, gotta deal with it.
