My MAC's slowed down.....help!
Discussion
My Apple Mac Mini (1.66 Intel Core Duo) has recently really slowed down, and the internet is the worst affetcted. It is running off airport, but the signal is high and there is no problems with the BT Hub it's connected too.
I Know the mini does like a memory upgrade, but its only been the last week when the net has been really slow.
Any ideas??

Something to look out for on OSX is if you have lots of documents/folders, filed on your desktop. This can really slow the machine down.
A friend of mine had loads [100+] of porn images on desktop [don't ask] and this had slowed the machine to a crawl. Moved them into a folder and hey presto full speed again.
Someone leeching on your broadband connection would only slow down web page loading and email, not your machine in general. Dodgey external harddrive can also slow finfer right down.
Without more info about setup it's hard do troubleshoot any better. support.apple.com - forums are very useful and easy to search for more assistance.
