I'm *so* fed up with my Win2k system at work. It just stops doing
anything - with no hourglass - for ten or more seconds at a time.
I don't get half-drawn windows, though - they aren't drawn at all.
And these are many-times-a-day occurrences, behind a corporate
firewall, with bang up to date spyware removal and anti-virus tools,
and with an IT department to keep everything running smoothly. And
yes, this is normal, according to my colleagues.

Oh yes, there are all the "This task is not responding" messages too...

And there's the second-by-second frustration of not being able to move
one window because it's got a child open, and you can only type into
the window at the front, which is obscuring the stuff you need to see
so that you know what to type...

No wonder I don't use Doze at home. It's a user's nightmare.
