This is exactly what I am talking about! Memory problems. We stuffed in another 128 of ram (256 total), but it only made a marginal difference. We could not seem to allocate more memory to adobe. Maybe because ya can't, or maybe because we're mac idiots. Either way about it, the whole experience seemed annoying and non-intuitive. One mouse button? How the hell is THAT supposed to work!!? I can see why any Mac user would say the same about windows. (two mouse buttons? what's the other one do??) Everything is done so differently (even if they do "look and feel" the same) that jumping across platforms is painful.
