Acrobat Bloat

With each incarnation of Adobe Acrobat Reader it gets more sluggish and clunky, and in version 6 they’ve outdone themselves. On my PIII 1GHz notebook, it takes 8 seconds to start up for the first time. I do not have the patience to wait for my computer the slave, not for something as trivial as a document viewer.. and while it’s loading in the browser it’s even more unbearable.. I can’t do anything but watch everything go blank. It’s not long enough to go make a coffee either.

THAT does it! I’m switching to GSView.
