No Kidding!!! Like Aqua, for starters, which is 'eye candy' and a 
large drain on Memory and CPU usage. Sheesh, open Process Viewer 
sometime and then open an 'empty' folder from the desktop, and watch 
what happens to CPU and memory, just to display an empty window. I 
choose to use it, because I have a lot of RAM, there's no rush 
[unless I've procrastinated re: a deadline], and I prefer the OS to 
OS 9. But 9 is faster, probably because it is logical vis a vis the 
resources required to perform mundane routines.

No comment. Most of the Apple installed base appreciates being able 
to set up their computers in a manner that suits them. It is much 
easier to set prefs on a Mac, than on a PC running Windows. But it's 
a double-edged bonus. I'll take my chances, and if experience shows 
that a pref or utility is creating instability, I trash it. Where's 
the controversy?
