Background: MacII, ext. keyboard, 8 Mb, system 6.0.5 installed for all macs.

Problem:  When I move the mouse and press a key, the cursor freezes
	for about 1/4 second and then jumps all over the screen.  It
	is as if the keyboard events take forever to process.
	It is very annoying as it makes many mac operations such
	as shift-cliking unbarable. In word processors, moving the cursor
	with the mouse is impossible right after you finished typing.
	I find myself using the delete key and erasing long sequences
	just to add something. Not what I would call progress. 

Solutions: I hope so.

	Help...
