Does the Aero interface actually slow down your PC?

I heard that Aero does not impact on performance, since it only uses the GPU or something in CPU time. So my question is: Does the Aero desktop performance impact or not? HP Mini 1115NR Intel Atom 1.6 GHz, 256MB of integrated graphics 2 GB of random access memory (RAM) Windows 7 Thanks, Michael

YES! And The GUI (Graphical User Interface) uses the CPU. The more complex, more processor it uses. RAM helps, but just to keep it running. If the CPU is being used to its limit, the slower computer. Especially in any Mini. Atom Intel can only handle so much, is designed to be portal, and 256MB of graphics memory, allow high quality. So, yes, in the end, another interface ANY will slow down your computer, some more than others, but none is better than normal.
