The OS version is in the signature, 10.6.8, Snowy. That was my confusion with the 64 bit stuff, I thought I was running 32 bit, as per the string where we were discussing the evil hard drive. Then, since I can go up to 400% of CPU, how come under Activity Monitor there are two boxes and each is almost full up? A little over 50% the user and 20-25% the system right now? And why does Shockwave have 523 threads or am I paying too much attention and ought to be watching TV or eating donuts?

It just worries me when I wake up at night and the fans are loud.
