My father-in-law was complaining about his Mac being incredibly slow, even after a reboot.
Turns out, he had a lot of programs running despite not having a document open, and that "reopen window" function was causing them to all reload on startup. Browser, word processor, tax software, whatever else. All on his aging Mac that I'm fairly sure only has 4 GB of RAM.
- asdff 4y agoThe fact that applications close when you close the window is a huge usability win for windows versus macs for most users I'd say.
