2 GB are fairly cheap nowadays, and it's often the most "bang for your buck" upgrade available. > I¹m not complaining - it¹s > amazing that this thing can still run the latest OS. Which OSX version are you using? I think you know that, usually, the newer the OS, the slower it is. If I were you, I wouldn't go past 10.9 on your iMac. I have an Early 2009 iMac, and I'm still mainly using OSX 10.6 because it's the more stable and faster on this machine. On a secondary partition I have OSX 10.9, for instances where I need to use some newer app. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
