- I don't think it's all that slow. I'm only running at 7MHz, and although it
- takes a couple of seconds to render each font, most documents come up quite
- quickly. There are some exceptions: the documentation for ProBOOT IIGS
- can take a couple of minutes or longer to open because of the number of
- fonts and styles used. A perfect opportunity to get a soda or something. :)
- Programmers are known for not getting up unless the computer is occupied.
