The Mac Zone - Born To Mac

Speed It Up

No matter how new and fast our Macs are, we always want them to be faster.
Waiting 5 seconds for Mail to launch can seem like an eternity. I know it did for me.
Luckily, I stumbled across an excellent, donation-ware application called Speedmail.
You can download it here;
Really Long Link
Just run this app every couple of weeks, and if you have an especially large mailbox, you will experience a noticeable decrease in the launch time of Mail.
Because it is donation-ware, it will nag you for a donation every time you use it.

While I strongly suggest that you help to support the development of excellent programs like this, if you are not able to, there is a way to disable the nag screen.
A small app called Kraken is available from the same site that provides Speedmail.
Its sole purpose is to disable the nags on their donation-ware.
While on the subject of speeding things up, one of the easiest, but most overlooked ways to turbo charge your Mac usage is by familiarizing yourself with "Keyboard Shortcuts".
You don't need to search the web for these as Apple has helpfully provided them all in one place for your enlightenment.
The direct link is;

Still anxiously awaiting the arrival of 'Netsmurf nano' (my 4 day late, but soon to be born son)
