Using WindowMaker instead of Gnome has the same effect and saves a few dollars. I just miss the delay to get a fresh coffee after typing the password. More seriously, once I had a similar effect when the hostname was not resolving because of a typo in the /etc/hosts file. Some Gnome tools were talking to DNS instead and waited, because the network connection was not established yet. But I've got rid of Gnome. Since then I understand which programs are running on my computer, and I don't need to debug them anymore.
