Android users--what's your favourite file manager? I reflexively download Astro and File Expert, but I'm not in love with either of them. Fuck, I just want something that looks like Windows Explorer. And in-app SMB integration would be great (File Expert has a separate window, Astro had a separate app--I'm trying to use it on a new device, and it's not seeing shit on the network--on my Tab it throws an error code).
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It will help you figure out if adding more RAM will help.
Well, since I'm using pretty much all my memory (only 30MB of free memory), I guess it would.
Is this something I can do myself? Or do I bring it in?

The status is NOT quo.
Lisah, ND and I have been using Box (different from Dropbox) for our cloud storage, and it's fabulous. There's yearly fee depending on how much storage you need, but you can share with anyone or access via the web or using Box Sync through your finder. Love it.

Evernote, fuck me. So, I said the Kustom Note was over-heavy (as well as annoying spelt), so I just went with bold text and horizontal rules instead. My ER visit template looks a bit like:
Doctor:
[NAME]
Nurse:
[NAME]
For some reason, since the first time I did that (Monday), Evernote now knows I'm typing in a form, and doesn't offer up the Doctor: part for editing. Just the [NAME] and a Done button. So much simpler to not mess things up.
Evernote--I continue to love you.

Android Market (fuck Play) has a 25¢ sale going on. Mostly games, but some good deals--I just saw CameraZoom, which is my default camera (and I got it during a 10¢ sale) and a pretty full featured looking scientific calculator.

[link] shows how to do it for MacBooks back to 2006. It looks pretty easy to do oneself for any of them.
What does it say for "Page outs" for your MacBook in Activity Monitor?

3.34 GB for page outs. That's a lot, I guess?

OK, Rob, so according to the system profiler I have 2 Memory cards in the slots, each 1GB. I assume I need to pull them and replace them with 2 2GB cards.
Newegg has this set for $54, it looks like the right thing: [link]
And then I follow the directions on the Apple Support page you gave me?

If you tell me the model information of your MacBook from "About This Mac => More Info" I can double-check it for you. Then indeed you follow the instructions from the Apple Support page.
