There are aging and arthritic tree sloths with quicker reflexes than the memory/processor/hard-drive combo in my MacMini!
In under a minute I will be starting the ugrade process for my MacMini, to move it into Yosemite Valley OSX. I am nearly completed with the backing up of what is going to get backed up. I am a bit nervous since my barely tolerable MacMini is crippled by whatever minimum RAM memory configuration it came loaded with. Curiously, I have not “user-servicable” upgraded it.
