Jim, I have the same problem, and it isn't the computer. The non-Intel PPCs are not supported any more and cannot keep up with software updates of programs that run on Intel machines. It's really noticeable on browsers like Firefox and flash media. No matter how much money you throw at your sow's ear, it will never be a silk purse.

OK, I need some advice. It's been a while. I've got two computers. One is a little old the other is a very old (in computer terms). It's a 10.5.8 PowerMac with 1.5 gigs of memory. It's so slow these days I have trouble doing crossword puzzles. Is there any sense in trying to boost its memory or any other upgrade I can make to make it run smoother that makes any sense? Or should I, as I expect, purchase a new one? And if so, what kind of new one? It's been a while. I have a newer large screen computer at another site that still works just fine so I haven't been desperate. But .... Jim taylor
