Please stick to the image posting guidelines - OreoCookie
I went into Home/Documents/iChat's, and in there I found 1959 saved chats. After reading a bunch of them, and remembering good times... (*sigh...*  ), I decided to do, Select All/Open!
At first they started piling up on the screen at amazing speed, as it got further and further along however... it began to slow down. The entire process took about 3 or 4 minutes probably, and at the end, the beach ball spun for probably a whole minute, while putting all but the frontmost window in the backround...
I then tried to do expose.. but IT WOULDN'T WORK! It would give me the "BGGB" noise, telling me it can't do it. Doesn't that suck? I mean, expose doesn't work with 2000 windows? That sucks alot....
Anyway, have fun with those pictures! I bet you've never seen iChat take over 1GB of memory before!

First of all, please stick to the image posting guidelines. Second of all, this is hardly a topic specific to ProMacs … moving.

I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

Isn't 1959 the total numbers of AIM users in the whole world?

You're asking this to a series of people who spend their spare time in the afternoons reading a message board devoted to their computers?

Actually, I wonder how fast/slow Expose would handle all those windows?

It would probably handle them so slowly that it would freeze up the computer. I don't think you quite realise the magnitude that 2000 windows is. Two thousand! That's 20 times one hundred!
Most of us have maybe 20 windows open at once, and that's if we're working on many things at once...

Another good reason to buy a Mac tower--to open up all your ichats at once!

Well, with acquisition and Serial Box in your dock, we at least know you have a pirated copy of Final Cut Studio

I should probably remove SerialSeeker from my dock too, in case people get the wrong idea that I'm pirating software, which of course I never do.
