Well, I use FF on Linux and WXP, with Adobe Flash on both, and wouldn't describe them on either platform as "cpu-hogs". For me, the Linux versions of both run quite smoothly. I can't say anything about performance. My personal laptop (with Linux) has a 1.5GHz Celeron M processor with 768MB of memory and the awful Intel video chipset that uses system memory for the video. My work laptop (with WXP) has a 1.8GHz Core 2 Duo with 2GB of memory and a nice, snappy non-Intel chipset that doesn't use system memory. -- David gnome@xxxxxxxxxxxxx authenticity, honesty, community _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
