This is false.  I would suggest that whatever CPU monitor program
you are using is giving you false readings.  Try starting a CPU
intensive program on a dead system (no background tasks, etc).
Time it once without moving the mouse at all and once
shaking like crazy...  You will see that your 30% number is WAY
out of line...

Have a good day,

Boycott programs that don't support the great OS you payed for!
Boycott programs that don't use the hardware you own.
