[QUOTE="6string, post: 1028447, member: 120039"] It takes me a lot longer to get stuff out of my boot than it does to put it in there.... especially if I've been grocery shopping, and didn't secure the bags before I left the supermarket, and I have items scattered all over the place :) Seriously though, apart from all that's been mentioned above, even something as simple as more than you had on your HD last time you used it is going to slow it down! Perform basic maintenance every now and then, and when you need a bigger HD, get one. If you want a faster boot time, application start, read/write, etc, get a larger and faster HD or SSD. Otherwise, put your stop watch away, and enjoy your Mac :) [/QUOTE]
