It gets more alarming as you go through the pages.
you didn't have to been a rocket scientist to figure that out. xp is faster.
the only thing the vista is was faster in with me was using nero 7 (who specific made their latest encoder for vista and 64 bit processore ) for video editing. hopefully when they get vista 64 bit together, it will show some promise in speed
