Hi there, I second everything Brian says, except for a couple of things. 1) That iMac model can only address 3GB of RAM. Bumping it up to the full 4GB could add an infinitesimal speed bump (I know this from first hand experience, having a maxed out 17" model), but it's not worth it in the end. A single 2GB would be the best way to unleash this Mac. 2) I would suggest upgrading to Snow Leopard only, not Lion. Snow Leopard is a wonderful, smooth, stable OS. Lion is a mixed bag, too much of a work in progress, at least for my taste. I'm actually happier using Windows 7 or my latest discovery, Linux Mint (the first out-of-the-box-usable, geeks-be-darned Linux distro I have ever tried), than Lion. But that could be just me, of course. HTH, Felix -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
