  • "Bugs & Fixes: SandboxCleaner cleans up QuickTime component crashes" Macworld 4/12
  • "'A client's 12 Snow Leopard iMacs all have constant slowness and SPODs (Spinning Pizza Of Death)...': may improve with addition of more memory. IMHO, Apple installs the minimum memory necessary in its base configurations, or did until recently. Almost all my clients have complained of slow performance, which improved dramatically when we maxed out RAM. Memory is cheap. Browser-related slowness can be improved, as in my experience Safari and Firefox fail to give up unused memory. Many open tabs in a browser open all day will result in a lot of memory usage, which can slow everything down." MacInTouch 4/12
