The new features look great but it's slow as heck on my computer. Previous versions of Blender opened in seconds, this one takes up to 40 seconds to open and every bit of the interface is laggy. I don't like the fact that they seem to have gotten rid of zip downloads too - all I was able to find was the .msi installer.

Also - how lazy have I become, that 40 seconds seems like forever. My first PC back in the early 80's could take 3-4 minutes to start up, now 40 seconds is frustrating. :)

If you click on the link underneath the download you will find the zip versions and versions for MAC and Linux Also I already heard that there might be a bug when using the node editor where it freezes up and or crashes so if working on something save often
