Whine, whine, whine.
I switched from a Mac PowerBook 1.67 to a Dell E1505 Intel Core Duo laptop. 100 Gig HD, a gig of RAM... supposedly a speedy little Windows machine.
This sucker is SLOW. I mean... once you're in an application, it's okay. But try to multitask... try to switch between various programs... or keep 6 ot 7 applications open at once, and the thing just crawls. Crawls! CRAWWWWWWWLS!
It's killing me.
I'm stuck with this for 8 months or more: the day Adobe Creative Suite 3, Macromedia Studio 9, Filemaker 9, and Office 2007 for Mac are released... I'm buying a MacBook Pro again. But until then, I'm going to force myself to use Windows. It's my own damn fault for giving Maggie my PowerBook and buying this piece o' shit.
Anyone know if I can safely uninstall the .Net Framework? Will that speed things up at all?
Ugh. God help me. And if I'm using Windows, God help us all.
Love to all. Even you, the Big Voiced Lady on the other side of this office wall.

Hm... thnx for your forewarning, I was looking into that Dell.
I don't think it's the .net framework that slows things down for you. Is it Media Center Edition?
Totally. ME 2005.
That's the problem?
Well... Is the system slow overall or just on start-up? Are you using Norton?
I take that back, .net CAN slow things down. The problem is that, since it's the M$ equivalent of JAVA, some programs (newer ones) may not work properly.
