Hello Trevor,

Shouldn't be like that. You don't mention doing the standard tweaks for
memory-minimal systems, or what your video setup is. The video is
usually the culprit, just like Windoze.

TW> And as for the fixpaks,

Which one?

This _is_ strange. The network drivers are a real resource hog, and I
would expect things to degrade with them active.

Chris
