defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSWindowResizeTime 0.001

Do you hate how long "sheets" take to show up? Are you running OS X on an "old" G4? This hint rocks, Rob IM'd me tonight and told me about it, and I love it. You can read the full hint at MacOSXHints.com.

defaults write NSGlobalDomain NSWindowResizeTime 5.0
