Hey all,

Slow browser loading (or not at all)? Can't run more than one
application at a time? We've all been there.

There is a wealth of information online about how to solve these
problems. It's often hard to find a gem amidst the coals. I've seen
some guys charge up towards $97 for this information or even worse,
computer technicians come over to your place to "fix" the problem,
often charging $300 upwards, only to leave your computer in no better
shape than it was before you came, or even worse off, toggling with
your settings and so forth.

Chris Mainieri's "PC Secret Formula" is that gem amongst the coals.
The video of a computer that he applies with his SF is phenomenal:
Photoshop boots up in 5 seconds, he opens up >20 browsers without
having the computer freeze... you've really gotta see it to believe
it.

I’m sure I speak for all of you when I say doesn’t it suck when you
get a new computer and it’s running beautifully, but as time goes by,
it just gets slower and slower, even if you don’t use heaps of
applications?

And when you do use heaps of applications, like say you are doing web
design and use Photoshop, the cobwebs that grow over your screen as
you watch it boot up are somewhat annoying huh?

IT’S JUST SOOO SLOW!

There is a way to speed it up, however.

Or say you’re trying to stream heaps of videos online at the same
time, while chatting to 10 mates on MSN and downloading songs, and
then it freezes?...

You could seriously just toss the desktop/laptop out the window.

I’ve seen multiple (and I’m talking like 20 or more) browser windows
been opened after powerful things – that are included within all
computers – have been activated so that there is no laggage AT ALL!

And the photoshop? Loading time?

5 seconds.

I have always fabricated unusual computer systems over the years, like
using the original IBM AT chassis with an upgraded Pentium family
system inside, etc.

Now there are these really small boards w/ processor pre-installed,
all you need add is power, memory, and storage- While not the fastest
things they look interesting.
