Looks like if I am careful not to try to do too many things at once, that the machine will behave. I may have to bite the bullet and restore the whole lot of the OS (and loose all that other good stuff ... ), but I'll not do it before Sunday.
My previous computer with XP lasted 5 years even after spilling a glass of wine on the keyboard. This new one is barely 5 months old and already I'm having serious problems. Makes me think that extra one pays for Apple may not be well spent. (Comments ???)
