Or Firefox ages to start. OpenOffice 30secs or so. Or on Windows, the Explorer window, also dead slow. Opening a folder with 200 folders inside: 1-2s in XP on a 2800XP+ Athlon! Sorry, but this is painful! Auto locator? Its a forgein word to today's modern systems. Ok, the console can beat it, but I want a GUI! A good and fast GUI! This is where my Atari ist STILL unbeaten! Ok, havent really tried a Mac yet. Maybe that one can do it... Cheers, Ingo =;->
