Yeah, I didn't want to be a jerk about it, but in other OS's,
including FC3, the machine was real snappy. FC4 is by far the most
sluggish OS that I've tried, but as I haven't set up a swap partition,
I did not want to blame FC4 just yet. But I know that a lot of people
complain that is is sluggish.

Side note: what is the general opinion about disabling CUPS, so that
it will not start up when I start the computer? I don't have a
printer, and it also seems like a resource hog.
