Hi Aaron,
I've noticed on Win32 that Squeak starts amazing fast if you provide it a parameter of the image you are starting (like no splash screen is necessary it is so fast). So why it takes so long when no parameter is provided and there is only 1 image file in the squeak folder, beats me. I just setup my shortcut to provide the parameter so I don't have to wait for startup.
Regards,
John

A splash screen would be nice for inexprienced an experienced users alike so you know that Squeak is starting and donot click on the exec twice or more.
