This is ruining my Mac experience, and I mean totally making me want to sell the Mac on Ebay and be done with it.
I looked around on the web and there is literally thousands of complaints regarding this. It happens at any times, even just typing up a simple post can render the Mac inoperable for up to 10 seconds. It happens after it comes off sleep, opening iTunes, Safari or any movie. Sometimes I see it happen, even if I'm not close to the keyboard.
I had the Mac back to the shop at least 5 times now and I'm guaranteed there is no hardware or software errors that would give lead to this. Apparently it's just 'one of those things mate, gotta get used to it'.
Any advice on how to fix or even minimise the 'spinning time' would be greatly appreciated.
I've even pulled out my old XP laptop and using that instead.
