In my opinion, the RAM and SSD would help tremendously. For VMs, especially the RAM. I've found disk and internet speed to be my biggest bottlenecks. My dad has this fiver year old iMac. I did a fresh install of everything and it's proving that it can still be "speedy" today. With extra RAM and...

Bump :)

Okay so I'm brainstorming something I'd like to do. Basically, I need (want) to be able to connect 4 or more drives (probably SATA HDDs) to my MacBook Pro Retina. And I need to do this with a single USB cable, because (unfortunately) I have exactly 2 USB ports at my disposal with everything...

It should be in the “downloads” folder.. Did you try searching for it? If you can’t find it just download it again. :D (btw, what browser are you using?)

I might go for a newer operating system since leopard is at least 5 years old. Mountain Lion only costs $20 from the mac app store. (You'd have to find a friend who has a mac because leopard doesn't have the app store) Obviously there's some "shady" ways to get it. ;) The disk you have for OSX...
