So I got a 17" mac book pro mactel box today so we can test some stuff at work. Can I just say this thing is sluggish as all get out. Moving things around and whatnot is killing me. Even dragging the scrollbars in Firefox to scroll down the forum is very jerky and stuttery. My old 15" ppc mac book never had this issue. Is this a known issue with mactel that I'm just going to have to live with? You'd think that with the dual core chip it would be faster. Could it be something running in the background that I don't know about? How can I tell if it is? Work installed Acrobat and the office suite as part of the setup, other than that it's a vanilla box.
just a question for all the mac-o-philes who frequent this board
