I hate that behaviour of IT, that I must wait for almost every click. It would more useful for meditative and slowdown process, too, when the computer is very quick, because every things I would have done sooner and would have enough time to meditate, for example. It is my own experience, day-to-day, tha I want to play meditative music, but before that I would like to read e-mails and save some interesting documents from net to my disk. But instead of doing it 10 minutes I do it 30 minutes, because starting OS takes 4 minutes, starting internet browser takes 1 minute, opening every post takes 10 seconds, opening MS Word takes 20 seconds, saving takes 10 seconds and through the time I read 10 e-mails and save 5 informations, I could ldrop prone on the bed, but no, i cannot, because the puases are not so big, but between almost every procedure, so it is impracical to go prone for 10 seconds every 2 minutes. So I hate slow technology!!! I want speed, quick process, to having time for relaxing after doing something - not to "relax" during the process - it terrible.
