    I’m a performance freak. I want programs to just FLY. I don’t want it to look terrible, but I don’t want to pay with performance for a little eye candy. I test with old slow systems so I can tell what is efficient or not, and then have a fast machine for me to actually use that just FLYS running the code that was fast on the antique laptops.

    I’ve tried 7 or 8 other distros in the few couple weeks, and the performance on all but 2 was totally abysmal, to where I thought the machine had crashed in some cases, things took so long. I finally got so tired of the pokeyness that I switched from the D620 to the M2400 for testing, and it is STILL painfully slow!

    I don’t object to making things look better if it won’t cost me any performance or memory or disk. But I think people’s tastes as to what looks good differ wildly, so what noclue might think looks good might not be appealing to someone else, or maybe it is, and I think the devs should decide what they want to do about it. My preference is use non-mandatory polls if in doubt to help steer which way to go on subjective things, like the background or logo, for example, and if all all possible, leave at least some flexibility so that people can easily change things to their own tastes.
