    My MBP has gotten a bit sluggish lately. It's a 2007 version, before the newer ones came out. Still a great computer, but seems slow sometimes. I do have Snow Leopard.

    So, if I were to do a fresh install, how can restore all my stuff from TimeMachine WITHOUT adding the OS back to it? There are ways to do that, right?

    • How much RAM do you have? Check in system profiler, if your mac is 3,1 you can have 6GB, if 4,1—8GBraf
    • Mine is a 2007 too, 6GB makes a huge difference over 4GB. Add SSD or a hybrid drive and it's like new.raf
