It isn't "jerky" at all, as if another process momentarily hogged the processor. I have been using the mac for only about 4 months. Coming from other operating systems, it has been hard to get used to. Generally typing isn't a problem but when I need to scroll back over a word or sentence, is when it is excruciatingly noticeable. I really love the Mac otherwise. --Kevin On Mar 8, 2004, at 9:53 AM, Kynan Shook wrote: > Hm. My main complaint is the speed of finger output.
