I always had windows blinds, and my Graal never lagged window mode or fullscreen.

What does that have to do with ANYTHING of this besides you trying to tell yourself that you have a life?

I still use windowsblinds but I dont use a various skins because graal seems to lag to hell because of it.

Just wanna point out thats vista will have transparent windows so hopefully Stefan has been doing some test with beta vista versions.

Edit:

Check this out and see how much ram I still have to use. And even though my cpu usage is at 90% doesnt mean I should be lagging. It just seems more like a bug with graal and transparent windows more or less than to many resources being used.

I was runninging:
-Graal
-Graal RC
-FireFox
-AIM
-One Aim window

They wouldn't be playing games ALL the time though. They'd be surfing the web for patches, posting on leet forums, or ordering kewl stuff which would look nicer with a nicer skin. But at the same time they don't want crappy linux or mr.imsucharebel mac since neither play the top games (because they suck of course).

Graal is using several windows (playerlist, pms, profiles, options, log etc.) unlike most plain one-window games. You don't have problems with programs like ICQ? Also the RC is probably taking more windows resources than Graal. But it is true that it might work better in fullscreen mode.
