I know where to look in OS X to alleviate possible slowdowns.
Now my work PC is passable, but noticeably slower than it was, but I don't know the similar tricks for Win 7.
I do know Chrome, and its memory-hogging process per tab model, and not a good fit for machines with only adequate RAM.
Windows' sleep modes also seem like a pale imitation of OS X, and the machine often wakes up groggy.
Assume there is no IT dept. to handle this.
Nuke and pave is not an option.
