[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1620978"] Yeah, not everybody knows about "ownership" but I did figure you were being humorous. I posted so that someone who doesn't have a sense of humor would know. Frankly, I actually laughed out loud at your comment! I'm glad your new machine is working so well, and I do think you are being wise in not loading it down with stuff until you need it, and doing so one at a time will help you know if it was the last thing you loaded that changed performance. One last comment, my observation is that while computers have gotten complicated, they also have gotten simpler. OS X is based on a variant of unix, and I remember configuring unix servers in the 1980's was a royal pain, and we never had graphic interfaces as a default. The idea of downloading and simply running a complete OS update was unthinkable. So, yes, they are complicated, but also they are much more user friendly (most of the time). [/QUOTE]
