What's with the activity monitors showing up?

It's like "I'll show you mine if you show me yours".

Hey, new topic maybe? Like: "Show us your pets" "show us your activity monitor."

Strange...never noticed the easy find logo was a squirrel. Who's that squirrel person around here?

Oh yes, the name rings a bell.

If i win the lottery I would buy one of those Imacs for the house.

I'm sure it would be fun to take one for a test drive too.

Solution, get more RAM. I have a lot of stuff running and no problems.

I got the solid state Flash drive and it really speeds things up. Allows better virtual memory too. I will never buy a spinny hard drive again.

Yeah, and hogging a little more RAM than I thought it would. It's a network piggy too. The EFI even more so. 

That screenshot is about 1/3 of the current processes and I had about 2/3 of my workload going, no slowdowns or lags. I give more than half the credit to the solid state drive.

SSD's are great but even they can't help a slow computer. I have a netbook with an Intel Atom processor and even with a SSD it's dog slow, to the point it can't even stream netflix. Works with youtube but netflix plays for a second, then buffers, plays another second...

Looks like I'm cobbling together a PC just to be able to watch TV upstairs.  :(

You can never have too much RAM... except in the case when you max out the ports with the highest amount. And I love SSDs, but I don't have any money to upgrade my computer right now. https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E2T0B-AM/dp/B010QD6W9I/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1497288722&sr=1-1&refinements=p_n_feature_three_browse-bin%3A6797522011
"There's been a lot of research recently on how hard it is to dislodge an impression once it's been implanted in someone's mind. (This is why political attack ads don't have to be true to be effective. The other side can point out their inaccuracies, but the voter's mind privileges the memory of the original accusation, which was juicier than any counterargument ever could be.)"

I would buy the 4 TB model for only $1399.00 but the bastards want $7.23 shipping. Screw that! :rotf:
