Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

I'm a little confused:  does it look like that consensus is that dashboard can cause a problem if you're running a lot of programs or not?  If it is, I think I'll disable mine, too, since I never use it

  Thanks Kent. 

  Here is the hint, although some people disagree with the need to do it :

  To turn Dashboard off:
  defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean YES 
  To turn Dashboard on:
  defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean NO 
  You have to restart the Dock after making either change for it to take 
  effect:
  killall Dock 
  [robg adds: I'm thinking this might be a pretty popular hint :). I tested the 
  commands, and they definitely work. When I ran ps ax | grep Dash with 
  Dashboard active, my three open widgets showed up in the process list. After changing 
  the defaults, F12 no longer worked, and the same ps command didn't find any 
  matches for Dashboard (OK, technically, if found the grep, but that's because 
  I'm too lazy to add it as an ignored match). When I re-enabled Dashboard, I was 
  somewhat surprised to find that my three open widgets were indeed still 
  open.]
