Douglas - I misread the answer and didn't have the original post to hand and
realised what was meant _once_ I'd sent my post.

I've never turned off "solid dragging" in OS 9 so mistook it for the chunks
you get with OS X with the not-so-old, slower Macs when you drag the image
around in a window. I don't have problems with dragging windows in OS X,
just the pixels in the window and then only sometimes. Haven't made a note
of when it happens but it's probably when all the RAM's been eaten by an
open image.
