So how overmatched is this laptop by the work I throw at it? I had to reboot to try and complete a task in iPhoto (uploading a book to Apple’s print services). Within 15 minutes of rebooting, it’s already had to create an additional swap file.

Here’s hoping the new iBooks live up to my expectations.
