I refuse to turn to sys7(let's stay away from that though), and would like to continue with this version. . .HOwever, when I copy a file, or update the system under font/da mover, occassionally, there is this huge lag where the computer just freezes, and the stupid little watch hand just goes around, around, and around. . . Annoying as this is, it can also become quite a serious occurence when launching a program. . . any thoughts? I would really like to stay with this version if I could. . . I would appreciate any thoughts, and eagerly anticipate any responses you may be so kind as to send me. . . Thanks in advance. . . steve franklin@ug.cs.dal.ca (these lags are often about 15 seconds or more, and happen a few times in a normal day. . . )
