I’m slowly moving my workflow over to my new MacBook refurb, and let me tell you, Aperture 1.5 is SIGNIFICANTLY faster on the MacBook than on the G5.

No spinning beachballs. Some waiting, and some fan noise because both cores get pegged, but nothing like the ass dragging I saw with Aperture 1.5 on the PowerMac G5.

Since I updated to version 1.5, Aperture no longer complains about the small screen resolution of the MacBook. And I’ve got 2 GB ram now, so it no longer complains about that.

I’m going to span my MacBook’s display to my Apple 17″ display (ADC), and I’ll be unstoppable.
