Hey, Mac, that list of things you said to try really boosted the speed
of My OOo, I thought it was fast, and now it's faster.
Additionally, I would like to add that it is indeed WUBI that slows
OOo down, it's considerably noticeable on my laptop. Then, I installed
Jaunty using my normal USB install-partition the disk job, and it was
perfect again.
