Majdi,
There are a couple of things that come to mind here.  One is that you 
just don't have something set up correctly on the machine.  Probably 
graphics.  Also, you can't really use Windows as a test of any kind to 
determine what might be wrong with your machine, as you're just not 
comparing oranges to oranges.

Secondly, there is a setting in the Preferences of FF that allows you to 
turn on "smooth scrolling", but I doubt that will fix your problem much 
until you get things right with the system setup.

Also, remember, new machines have their problems too!  ;-)

Since it does all work in Windows though, I suspect it's just your setup 
and not the hardware.

regards,
Lee
