But why do windows can open such large application like MS Word 2000 in less than five seconds but LM 7.2 needs more than that to open Star Office 5.2 Could any body recommend me something to be done (kernel compiling, turning off services, upgrade kernel, hdparm or something) ? By the way, where should I go if I want to learn basic networking under Linux and to activate my ATA66 harddisk?

Remember that MS Word is a stand-alone of a whole
family of MS Office products. Star Office launches the entire office suite. If
MS Office did the same it would need to launch Word, Power Point, Excel, etc.,
etc. You are not comparing apples to apples.
