i can't resist this one.  to add further to John's response, why are you 
having to su so much?  the only time i have to su is to install programs.   i 
just tried this, i can su & type in a password in 4 seconds.  you do this so 
often that it results in a "fair amount of lost time"?  i'm sure i'm not the 
only one who would be curious to know what you are doing to that computer.

Day One:  I hate M$.  I think I'll try Linux.
Day Two:  This crap sucks.  It isn't Windows.

Windows is not Linux, Linux is not Windows.  Decide which you want & use it.
