That's exactly right -- the mac goes through a memory test upon each power up. If you are as impatient as I am, you can bypass the ram test by holding the mouse button down. Release the button after it's skipped the test, and you'll see the desktop appear as fast as it can. --Cheers, Tom -- Prof. Thomas H.
