Although you're a troll (and I saw the exact same message for 9.1 and 9.2,
I'll reply. (I'm still on 9.2 running on an Athlon XP2400 with 512MB.)

Interesting - OOo (Write) took 8 seconds to open a MS Word Document.

MS Word (under CX Office) took 26 seconds to load same document.

Firefox (1.0.3) takes four seconds from click to displaying my home page(
slashdot.org )
> Internet Explorer takes 2 seconds.
Internet Explorer 6 (under CX Office) takes roubhly 62 seconds to load and
display my default page (about:blank).

I never burn faster than 24x so I can't comment. Also on Windows I have
Roxio, so I don't use Nero.

Sounds like a hardware problem. I don't have a file called logs under the
var folder. I do have a folder, called, log, which has a file called
messages.
This file has a bunch of stuff probably related to my using VPN and RDC to
get to my work systems.

Um, I burn DVD's all the time. At least once a week I back up my entire
systeem to two DVD's using KDAR and K3B.

What part of Linux is wrong? Nothing. You're talking about Suse, which runs
on top of Linux.

Nah, I doubt it. There'll be enough sheep to use MS Products for years to
come.
HTH!
