Hello, What is the right amount of RAM for an iMac G5 running Tiger 10.4.1. Mine has 512 and at times the SBOD appears, mostly when Safari is previewing a portion of a video and (!!!) with Word X trying to paste a chunk of text fron the clipboard. I do minimal Pshop (crop, gamma adjust, etc), small Keynotes presentation, my personal asset management in File Maker 6, light emailing in Mail. No iTuning, no iDVDing. Some light but consistent work on a few pictures taken with my camera in iPhoto. So should I take apart a 256 stick and replace it with a 512 or a 1gig stick. I need some advices cause I was told Tiger would run much more smoothly with more memory. Thanks for your hints Germain Imac G5, 1.8 ghz 512 ram / 80 gig HD Tiger 10.4.1 français _______________________________________________ X4U mailing list X4U at listserver.themacintoshguy.com http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/mailman/listinfo/x4u Listmom is trying to clean out his closets!
