Hmm. In that case, I'm pretty sure the CPU is the bottleneck, especially in AE. You're maxed on RAM on a 2010 Pro. Only thing you could upgrade would be the hard drive to an SSD, and that would only help if your scratch disks were set to the main boot drive (in which case, it would help tremendously).

Select occurrences of the word 'pin'

If you've been running your Adobe app for a long enough single session most of the application will be loaded into the RAM anyway, and the OS will prioritize the app over the media when allocating RAM, so all an SSD would really do is make your startup times faster if you store your media on a RAID.

First off, 8 Gb (gigabits) = 1 GB (gigabyte). Bits vs bytes. Remember the difference.

Really depends how much you're going to get into video work.

As a MacBook Air user, I'm not shopping for replacement drives anytime soon, but any off the shelf HDD/hybrid drive will perform admirably under OS X. If you're shopping for an SSD though, try to buy modern, name brand drives (supporting SATA III/SATA 3.0/SATA6, all the same thing). These are much faster than other

I've never really heard of people taking their MacBooks to the Genius Bar for hardware upgrades, and I'm pretty sure it's not possible. They'll only swap a hard drive if it's broken, and then only for one of equal capacity/RPM.

Neat, but one of those things that's better to buy from a store.

"There is no such thing as bad publicity."

You have no idea how many times I've been told at work about how the amazing iPhone 5 is going to have a holographic screen. "Seriously, it's real. I saw the YouTube video Apple put out!"

Does not use Chicago as system font. Not worth it.

It's satisfying to drag the UI across the screen, and large elaborate sliding animations have always been in Apple's UIs, OS X is full of them.

Perhaps the article should specify, the camera button is always present on the lock screen in this build and does not require a double-press of the home button like the current behavior. Seems to be causing a lot of confusion. #corrections

I feel for that kid between ages 13 and 28

I thought at this point the SandForce controllers in most modern SSDs do enough garbage collection to make TRIM unnecessary. Sorta like the person who feels the need to defrag Windows 7 and OS X regularly.

try Calvetica.

I respect the fact that you confused the everliving shit out of me with that.
