This "long" process takes < 1 second on my 25MHz Color and is not  
objectionable to me.  How long does it take on other machines?  How fast  
would it have to be, in your opinion, so as not to be objectionable?

I'm not trying to be flip. I can't speak about NeXT's intensions but I can  
see a justification for the shrinking device; to give a clue to the user  
where the icon is poping up.  This is sometimes helpful on a cluttered  
screen. It's not a help, however,  if it becomes objectionable. I really  
want to know what makes this objectionable for those of you that don't care  
for it.
