[was Re: burning iso image on a Mac]

I'm just starting to play around with Linux. A couple of days ago, I installed Ubuntu on my Inspiron 7500. When I switch from one application to another by clicking (say) on a Firefox window when Help is in the foreground, it takes many seconds before the newly selected application is available and the screen properly refreshed. I'm planning on installing Fedora. Is it likely to be any faster?

Thanks,

Another question:

I tried Ubuntu on my Inspiron 7500, but context switching was sooooo
slooooow it drove me crazy. Will Fedora be any swifter?

(Please don't top-post on mailing lists. It makes threads harder to
read).

Thanks Patrick.



What exactly do you mean by context-switching? Between windows? Between
desktops? Between virtual consoles? Between processes?
