I actually find it very useful and I don't have any problems of that kind you mention, as far as I have noticed. However, I won't try to convince you to use it or anything like that. The world is a lot more fun with different kinds of people; otherwise we could populate the earth with clones of me… So please continue to not using Compiz-Fusion. Also, when people ask me about GNU/Linux and what I think, I usually recommend them to continue with Windows. That way, I don't have to help them when things go wrong; I just tell them that I don't know anything about it.
