<tip type="Macs and memory">

Because of the way Mac memory works, opening and closing programs in random
order eats up system resources. Memory is not always released once a program
is closed.

In order to avoid this problem, close programs in the opposite order you
opened them.

IOW, if you opened:

Eudora
Browser of your choice
WYSIWYG
Image editor

...you should close them in this order:

Image editor
WYSIWYG
Browser of your choice
Eudora
