I dunno why, but as of late my OSX (panther) on my powerbook has been getting slower. Safari bounces like 5 times, and when i click on new windows or text fields, it takes a while to get there. So, I have decided to use this as an opportune time to switch to Tiger since it seems to be a lot more stable now. However i have a couple questions about backups...
1. i'm thinking of backing up to an external HD. any suggestions on brands and stuff?
2. I have a couple of expensive applications in which I have lost the cd for (
) and would like to know how I copy those over? Can i just drag the app to the new HD and then drag it back after?
3. is there a quick fix for my speed issues in the meantime while i sort this all out? I have onyx, but don't know how to use it properly...
