I need 4 GB bad. It has only been 3 days since I last rebooted. Why did Apple limit the PowerBooks to 2 GB?

Looks like I need to quit kernel_task photoshop and safari

It looks about right comapred to mine. Well safari is low because it recently crashed

Not sure why this is interesting. Maybe if it were specified to do so after some specific event like boot or something but anyway, here's mine:

Looks at huge safari and kernel task usage

Anybody know how to reduce kernel task's usage?

I am shutting down for the night so things are slow. Eventually I'll max out the ram because I have 10 more gigs sitting next to my MP.

I do not understand why people will have working computer parts / upgrades sitting beside the computer and not install it.

Perhaps they haven't had an opportunity to do so yet
Other things may take priority

I am considering ordering a new HD, but I won't be able to install it immediately

Because I had 10 gigs of owc ram in my mp. I took it in for a repair and was given a new machine where apple swapped out my 10 gb for their own samsung 8 gb. It was their way of saying they hate 3rd party ram. It's been a while and I just have not had a chance to put it in. Silly thing like work & life gets in the way.

I also have a perfect condition PowerBook in the orig box in a closet that I haven't touched in 6 months. ;) doesnt that kill ya?
