Is MacResource slow on anyone else's computer?

On my iMac it's like wading through mud—painfully slow…

Even at 5;53 AM Pacific, when many folks still sleep. Was even slower yesterday.

Nope on the East coast.

Trying to figure out some people is like trying to smell the number 9.

Restarted. Now to click Preview. Thirteen seconds until preview appeared.


What am I doing wrong??

Could the VPN be interfering? This took at least five MINUTES

“Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented." - Eli Weisel

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." - Theodore Roosevelt (1918)

"I don’t want to see religious bigotry in any form. It would disturb me if there was a wedding between the religious fundamentalists and the political right. The hard right has no interest in religion except to manipulate it." - Billy Graham 1981

"Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise" - Barry Goldwater

Restarted modem, restarted router. A little quicker, but still sluggish… 14 seconds from click Preview to message appearance.

Typical quick speed out my way.

I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

Clyde, what did you tell Larry in a PM that got you into this obvious Black List?!

For the last couple of months, in central Oregon, it’s been way sluggish on my iPhone.

Nice and snappy here in West Central Florida - though that wasn't the case early this morning when my upload speeds were more than double my download speed.

Don't recall an exchange with Larry (this preview appeared in 2 seconds!)

Loading times of other sites appear to be OK. (Preview of this took ~2 sec; lots better than 15 or more…)

Must be all the Black Friday shoppers slamming OWC for great deals.
