Dave,

have you experienced any problems with Pen movement or mouse movement
during high disk activity.

If this problem exists, I wonder if it really has any impact on the
user. Sometimes, I run a compilation background task and deal with the
performance hit.

My guess is that it is only an observance made by many and not a point
worthy of consideration when deciding to purchase.


Thanks in Advance,
L4CES
