Thats why i mentioned the swap.. as something that rely on both cpu and memory. Please read and understand before you say something.

Not nescessarily, it could also be a hardware fault. Low memory, and a not so powerful processor.
Yes, but he said it got better when he uninstalled programs.

Didn't you just say that "Memory and Cpu does not rely on each." Are you contradicting your self?
Ohh.. here you understood.. and In a way.. yes. The swap exists so you don't have to rely on the "real" memory space. Swap is more like ram. A partition you can't save anything on. You can however fill it up but it's not likely.

lemme get this straight? Linux = Immortal? No doubt that linux is better than windows but come on man...this is simply illogical. I'm not even going to provide an explanation.
I have used the same machine for 4 years and have not yet experienced an slowdown. When i had windows.. i formated it every 6 month..

I do not know if you have owned a computer with linux as OS. I have. Linux will not save the world from war and not either from famine.. but it will save you from a lesser OS.
