I can't do it now since I'm working on a project, but I have twice in the past when I ran into problems with bootcamp. Like I said before, when I've done a complete erasure and re-…

well wouldn't it be true across the board? if xBench isn't showing a lot, it seems like whatever the apple tech uses will also yeild a low score.

I ran cinebench and came up with this... which sorta disagrees with xbench.. confusing. code:Rendering (Single CPU): 331 CB-CPU Rendering (Multiple CPU): 626 CB-CPU Multip…

I went and ran the same test and got about the same score....that is pretty weird. CINEBENCH 9.5 ************************************************** ** Tester : David …

Wow, that really is OFF. Here are the results of my MBP 2.0GHz 2GB RAM and 7200RPM HD

If you open Activity Monitor are there any run away process?

Go to your Energy Saver settings either at the Menu Bar or in System Preferences. Set it to "Better Performance" and rerun your tests.

in the next couple days, i'm going to remove the 3rd party ram that I've installed and run the tests again. even though everything says that it's okay, you never know.. this sucks …

Alright well I know it's a different computer and different chip, but when my iMac got slow and I took it in, an employee asked me there if I had installed any Unsanity things. As …

I know those Canon Button Managers can cause issues, since they constantly keep pooling for the scanner.

uninstalled ape along with clear dock... now with button manager deals killed.. this isn't making sense.. it's getting worse as I uninstall more garbage..

are you restarting after you uninstall them? It helped my score by restarting before I take it so that it's working off a clean plate.

well, i logged in and out. i'll restart and see if that helps.

same thing.. nothing's changed.

Here's a wild guess: have you checked for duplicate fonts? Now, whenever I install a new application, I check my fonts to make sure no duplicates have been installed. I found tha…

I use FontExplorer to manage my fonts. It does an iTunes type thing by copying them to a specific folder and and organizing them on it's own. It's been moving slow since I've insta…

two things. I reinstalled osx last night (which I'm now realizing, I didn't need to do). I did a few tests right off the bat with a clean install. It was better, but not great. t…

Charts Not a big leap in logic, but nonetheless TS adds a name to the app.

It wouldn't surprise me... it could even be a quasi port from NeXT. I only wish they would build iWork/iLife into the OS (and tack on another $20-$40 to the price).

Meh, the article says that it's aimed at consumers and is not a direct competitor to Excel. I still hope they include a nice selection of equations (particularly financial). It w…

Sounds very interesting. I'm a novice user of Excel so Charts might be perfect for someone like me. Speculation of course.

I found Pages very impressive, it did everything I could ever want from a word processor and things like aligning multiple pictures to the right was a one click affair not a 1 dial…

This would make me very happy if true.

Think Secret have a high degree of reliability.
