Title: Slow, dumbed-down bloatware
Review: The first think I noticed about this program is that it's SLOW--it takes forever to load, and you can actually see the screen redraw. The user interface skinning is not particularly attractive, and it's obviously very inefficient--you can see it draw the background and then draw the user interface elements on top of it. And I don't have a slow computer--it's an Athlon 64 3000+ with 1GB DDR400 RAM. I shudder to think how sluggish and unresponsive it would be on a Celeron system.My other complaint is that all of the useful options have been removed. In particular, the bootable CD functionality has been gutted--it's no longer possible to slipstream a Windows install CD, which was a very useful feature for sysadmins.All I want is a fast, useful, and unobtrusive CD/DVD mastering utility, and Roxio 7 fails on all three counts.
Is the review positive or negative?
