Some messages come clipped and I have to click "Show Original" to the
entire message (in another tab/window!!). Looking in Help Center, i
found they telling that this is "to ensure that messages load
quickly".
I don't want a quick load, i want to see the entire message exactly
the way it is, in the right place it is supposed to be. Almost all my
messages are being shown this way!

Why does this clipped message happen at random? And it doesn't matter
how many messages are in a particular e-mail string. Very annoying.
The old version was much better; this never happened and my one friend
and I frequently have 75-100 messages in a string.
As far as loading quickly, this new version is MUCH slower. I use
Firefox at home, and IE at work, and both systems are slow.

I agree: the new version's only virtue, it seems, is sloth. Perhaps
they're taking lessons from Microsoft. Once MS had a half-decent
patchwork crazy quilt that worked pretty often, called XP SP2, they
hurried to design a new operating system that would be slower, fatter,
and would require more patches right away: VISTA, Service Pack 1!.
The old version of Gmail is better than the new one, but they won't
admit it. If you get the old one, just log onto that one, all the
time: you'll have no trouble.

Do you have to click on "show original" or on "show details"? If you
mean "show details", then the Better Gmail 2 add-on for Firefox has a
setting to always/never show details. If you have this add-on, check
its settings.
