Sometimes while starting some app the pointer messes the desktop a bit (leaves parts of the pointer to it).
Even when running 15+ apps same time causes no problems, except this loading thing... all seems to start like frozen and panel disapears for a while.. Strange that the harddrive doesn't do much work... system just stands still and waits something and finally app get ready and appears.
