You can try and run Parralel and see if it is really that lagging. If it is then you could opt for RAM upgrading. Get another 2GB RAM and install it and it should be enough. =)

Nope, she's the one who took the shot and edit it. She is a photographer. To me her photo is damn nice, that's why I'm making it my wallpaper

Does she have any online webpage where she keeps her portfolio? I am a serious hobbyist where photography is concerned and would like to view more of her work.
