Funny how we also sometimes forget some of the other bad features of M$. I was helping a friend last night who had a "problem viewing jpgs". It turned into a PC training session, but I got really bored as everything I did in M$ was so -=painfully slow=-. I have gotten spoiled by how much faster everything is in Linux. Then we also did a defrag on the disk, we let that run overnight. True it takes KDE a while to come up after logging in, but each app isn't really slow. Some are, but not many. At least the ones I use.
