My experience is different. I also have a hyperthreaded (3 GHZ) laptop with
1 GB Ram (128 used by Video) and don't find it slow at all. And it is just
the regular beta2 available to the public, not a later beta. Do you keep
your drive cleaned of temp files and defragment when needed? I would also
would look at your free drive space, but if that isn't a problem, then I
couldn't account for the slowness.

timed and each mouse click takes about 10 seconds to respond.

I've done all installs on an Intel hyperthreaded pc with 1GB RAM and 60GB
drive. If I install XP pro, it flies on either machine, but Vista chokes !!!
