Subject: [Leica] OT: Apple Mac gets grindingly slow...

At home, I use a MacBook Pro, OS 10.5.8, 2.33 GHz Dual Core Duo, with  
2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.  When I edit photos in Lightroom it becomes  
frustratingly slow these days.  Is there anything I can do to get it  
over those speed bumps faster?  I heard I can give it 3 GB of RAM  
instead of 2, but that might not help any, because this Mac is said to  
work better with equal sized RAM chips.  Any suggestions, or is it  
time to buy a new Mac?  I was hoping this one would last me longer.
