[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1603341, member: 56379"] I understand what you're saying.:) You could always install Mavericks…see how it works out…and if it's not working out well…downgrade back to Mountain Lion. Just remember…downgrading is not as easy as upgrading. So if you decide to downgrade…be prepared to do a reformat & complete erase….and then install. But BEFORE doing this. Run the exact same apps and exact same tasks on your current setup BEFORE upgrading to Mavericks…and write down the temp. info. This way if you upgrade to Mavericks…and you think that the computer is running hot…you will have some Mountain Lion benchmarks to compare to. Many times folks do an upgrade….think that they notice a problem…then blame the upgrade for the problem. When in reality…the same "problem" was already there BEFORE the upgrade. HTH, - Nick [/QUOTE]
