[QUOTE="TheDesignShop, post: 32254"] Since I'm new to OSX, I'm thinking it's probably not different than any other of the Apple OS's in regard to the way it handles RAM. If you had open applications, even closing them does not reset the RAM unless you close all of your applications. Once you close everyone, then it frees up the RAM and once you start a new program, you should be OK. Like I said, that is my experience up to OSX. I've only been using it since November, so I'm not entirely familiar with the interworkings. [/QUOTE]
