I see where you're coming from...but how lazy is too lazy? My ideal computer would be downright psychic and instantaneous with any task I wanted it to perform. Is that too lazy? I also don't want file transfers interrupted or services abruptly halted because of the task I choose.

To most people a computer isn't a project to work on, it's a tool to make things easier. You and I aren't most people...but I suspect some folks are.

Oh, and in the self-serving interest of deflecting [-1 Offtopic], I'm also running Ubuntu (and reccomend it to others) specifically because it's the laziest distro I've stumbled upon.
