Eve Online login window CPU hog

Eve Online has a daily system restart, and when this happens, I sometimes leave the login window open, so I can keep checking and log back in as soon as downtime finishes. However, I’ve noticed that the login screen seems to consume a heck of a lot more CPU cycles than the application itself. Interesting.

USB1.0 is s...l...o...w

Man, 12 Mbit/s is slow. I’ve got a USB 1.0 “full-speed” hub, and tried to copy across 60GB of files. In about 18 hours, that was only about 3GB copied… So I bought a USB 2.0 hub, and that is much faster.
