[QUOTE="eric, post: 355724, member: 22327"] installs can be a bit messy. some people always reinstall the OS themselves. i think some simple initial maintenance (mac or windows) is always a good idea. even when i got a new windows machine i would always remove everything i didn't really need and then clean out my temp files and defrag before loading my most critical programs first, defragging again, and then loading secondary programs. with a mac it doesn't seem that you need to be this meticulous, but it's a good idea to do a little maintenance, especially on a macbook that will probably not be 'awake' at 3am to run it's normal/stock maintenance scripts. try one of those apps, clean out your old logs and cache files. restart (the first restart will be a bit slower, but it will speed up again after), and see how everything works. btw, welcome to the forums. :) [/QUOTE]
