VERY VERY subjective answer, yes, CURRENT seems snappier as has been said before. (I was using ULE and PREEMPTION in 5.4) (However, I have some cheap onboard video card, using the via driver). Things like frozen bubble for instance, just seem snappier, even on this low-end machine, 1.2 gig processor 512 megs DDR vs my main 5.4 workstation, 3 gig processor, a gig of DDR. Again, very subjective--both machines are lightly loaded, really just workstations. - -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Buffy: You're like my fairy godmother, and Santa Claus, and Q all wrapped up into one.
