There is some latency with cut/paste but it works pretty well in MacOS X. I hear that the picture is not as rosy if you try to cut/paste between MacOS X and Classic. Anyway, what app are you having issues with? IE has known problems.

Apple changed the behaviour of the copy/paste mechanism for monostyled text a bit, that's why it doesn't work in some applications now.
Either Apple makes it more compatible to the old way or the applications need to be updated.

True, I get it a lot in IE, but also in other ones like ICQ...
