It baffles me how bad windows can be at times. Now, I don't have a bad computer; it's got a good graphics card, centrino duo, 2 gb ram, dual harddrives at 700-something rpm. Thus, the fact that windows vista can ACTUALLY TAKE 15 SECONDS TO OPEN A FOLDER ON THE START MENU has me confused.

I'm likely to reinstall windows now, then move this to scraps. In the maintime... *sigh*, comon Microsoft, give us users the option to not use your fancy, slow interfaces. Or your one-button defrag program. Or the ribbon in Office 2007. Or the many other features that you have to use because it's the standard in business, despite how slow and unreliable it is.
