Well that should definitely disqualify you from this discussion! >Essentially, your priority list for expenses on a MBP is: >1. Memory >2. Memory >3. Memory >4. Memory... On a similar note I was reading about souping up the Mac Mini. After testing similar to yours that author concluded that upping the RAM to 4GB was the most effective and least expensive upgrade. Processor speed had some but minor impact. Your test compared 2.44 GHz with 2.26 GHz. That's a difference of 7 percent, something that will only be noticed if you frequently apply compute-intensive filters -- most of us don't. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
