Hi, I bought the new SR MacBook last month. I do like it but I have some issues with the speed, It is the 2.2ghz with 1gb RAM model. I upgraded from an antiquated 700mhz PC and maybe I overestimated the speed of the computers of nowadays.
My issue is that I think I may have some problem with the RAM, I took it to the applestore and they said that nothing was wrong with it (they did a 24hr test regime thingy on it). I see the beachball thing quite often and some times Safari seems to freeze up alot. when I have Safari, Itunes and Garageband open, the system seems extremely slow, using hte magic garageband thing is pretty much impossible.
As I said before I am new to mac and this "new generation of computers" in general, I just wanted to know If I am overly paranoid and this is normal or if there is something wrong with the computer.
It should be said that having upgrading from such an old computer I was expecting a lighting fast and perfect computer.
Also what is your opinion on speed improvements since the early 2000s?
thanks in advance
