I am very new to Mac, but I love what I see so far .<br>
My problem is watching YouTube videos , it is very slow and stops numerous times to buffer.<br>
I don't have any other programs open when I am trying watch YouTube .<br>
<br>
Can someone give me advice on how to get a good solid stream ?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
