I think some of the more advanced skinning options in 3 are very attractive, but like most of you have said–it’s way too slow. I have a 1GHz AMD, an A-Bit Kta7 mobo, and 512 megs of RAM and when I ran 3 it took on average 3-4 times longer to execute a request/action.

I loaded 3 on my work PC and it grinded every process I had running to a halt. I don’t know what’s inside my system here at work (I wouldn’t want to open it up and scare what ever is running on the treadmill), but if I can run PhotoShop without a hitch, I should be able to play a media player with no problem.

Hopefully WinAmp will fix the speed issue. I’m really surprised they haven’t yet.
