You think Windoze users have problems! As a Mac user from the time they were introduced, it has always been the case that updates had been thoroughly checked out - had to get past Steve Jobs - and th...

How very strange! I've had no problems at all and the Mac has just logged in as normal every morning. No slowing down at all. Hope you get it sorted.

No wings....anything that makes an F1 car look less like an upside down plane is good :sun:

Jason, not sure your post is one I should give a 'like' to! I've just got home from hospital to have a pacemaker fitted so I sympathise with medical problems of any kind - it sounds nasty. I'm with ...
