Mac is still SLOW!
I recently upgraded to Lion, which is as far as my computer can go. Since then, it is SLOW!
I was told it was because I had no room on my MAC drive (which I didn't), so I got an external drive and moved all my data files to there.
Then, I was told that it was because I had the external drive on a hub, so I moved it to connect directly through one of the USB ports. Still no go.
I now have 147 GB free on my Mac HD, 859 GB free on my Seagate External drive, which is connected directly to the computer. My Time Machine drive is also connected directly to the computer. I have 2.5GB of RAM (out of a possible 3).
Can anyone give me an idea why my Mac has slowed down so much, and what to do about this? I see that pinwheel SO MUCH nowadays, it's like every operation is a PB&J opportunity...
Thanks!
