You just made me realise that latency might be a strong reason why some users might enjoy TUIs more.
I’m also thinking that there might be a universal solution to all animations: user-driven animation end. Like, the system could cut off the animation as soon as the user hits another key, making it faster and learning the right rate of animations over time. That would be great!
Although I fired up Solaris 9 on an old Sun Blade a few months ago, and the GUI latency on that was imperceptible.
