The only problem I have with this, is that Windows XP is running about
four to five times *faster* on my old laptop, than FC3 with GNOME.
From the moment I power up my laptop, it takes about two minutes to get
to Windows login prompt. It takes almost 10 to get to GNOME login
prompt. I usually go make myself cup of coffe when I plan to boot FC3
on it. When I login, Windows is about two times faster to get me to the
desktop than GNOME. Running thunderbird and firefox under Windows is
usable. Running them under FC3/GNOME, well let call it usable, but so
much slower (good thing I made myself that cup of coffe).
I wouldn't call this a progress. Something to think about next time
more bloat is added.
