I'll be sure to try that. I remember how upset I was when the power
connector broke on my PB 190, which took away my uptime record. :( (Two
months, three days for the 190 and with a new battery, the Lombard
should break that.)
Well, I'm going to be sure to give OnyX a shot. For some reason,
everyone's assuming it runs Tiger, when it runs Panther, though. I
remember trying to get him to upgrade to Tiger, though... OnyX may even
put some pep in my Lombard, so it's going into my testing repertoire,
now.
Thanks for the suggestion,
Caleb

As far as autostart utilities go, I'll take a look at those. The
thing
has only had a total of 3 hours downtime since the day Tiger came
out,
and that was only because of a power outage. I don't know, but I may
be
replacing my Linux server with some Mac minis if that keeps up...
Now, where do I get MacJanitor, so I can try it?
Do you mean it has been running for months without shutting down or
restart?
That is awesome, but it may well be the cause for the slowdown (with
large caches creeping up, and memory fragmentation).
Try restarting the machine.
(I also second the recommendation to run an utility like OnyX or
MacJanitor from time to time; on one occasion, I had a B&W seem new
again by a single run of OnyX)
