While I admit that I too saw *some* slowdown when
using Dashboard, it was not enough to cause me to stop
using the product. Now granted...I've never used
Dashboard on a non-acellerated Newton, so I don't have
experience with an already slow(er) machine...
And I'm loath to switch my newton to non-acellerated
mode to test...I just can't abide with my Newton when
it's not acellerated...perhaps its in part due to
Dashboard...I don't know really.
