I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which means my "noticing" things is not what it 
_should_ be. I used to be able to work on a computer 11 to 12 hrs per day, now 2 
per day leaves me physically and mentally exhausted.

It amazes me that you obviously have no compassion for people with disabilties.

FYI, the CPU usage did not go up to 100%
