Developers and marketers often overestimate how much the users will love the impressive and slow effects they pack their products with. I was reminded by this today as I installed Debian on a new computer. Why do Gnome makers imagine it's OK to have the *default* on slow ("Animations") rather than instant ? Do they really think we'll be happy enjoying a 200ms or 500ms delay every time we reduce or open a window ?
