   I've never noticed an issue. I've been using it for about 15 years I   
   reckon. I don't recall it nagging at me. I run it on a remote work   
   Windows machine via RDP and the use its X server for all the remote   
   Linux machines. Much better for my workflow than using Citrix. And yes,   
   I know the licence limits for using the home version in a commercial   
   environment.
