Tired of how slow my G4 was, I just bought a MacBook and installed 2GB RAM.

I wasn't expecting this to make all that much difference with REALbasic performance, but in fact, it's significantly faster. This appears to be mostly because my old computer had 768MB RAM, and would wind up swapping quite a bit. With REALbasic, NetNewsWire Lite, Mail, and Firefox running, I'm using almost 1.2GB RAM, so it's no wonder.

If anyone has been holding off on buying a MacBook until Intel-native REALbasic comes out, I say jump now.
