Are you talking about the smooth moving cursor? That's the first thing I disable in the registry with any new install. https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/off

  No, he's talking about an obvious latency to almost any action, on a multi core multi GB computer.

    Do you think it's due to some kind of network call? I think the licensing in general is extremely painful. I've definitely paid like $450 over the last 8 years for various microsoft stuff and I just don't like that. I wish you could easily get device-portable single use licenses that don't just evaporate after the licensing period ends. Word/Excel is decent but has become an immeasurably huge piece of shit over the last two or three years compared to previous eras

      > Do you think it's due to some kind of network call? Good call! (No pun intended.) I often wondered why my fancy Xfinity DVR is so sluggish when I press a button on the remote. It finally connected when my Internet kept going down after some improvement they made and when the Internet could not be reached, the system stops responding to the remote. Can't even pause or exit. It's clear that every button press must make a round trip to Comcast' servers before it is acted on. It's Craptastic!
