I have yet to find anything that is faster on Vista than XP. Vista
appears to be designed as a counter to Moore's Law.

The common rant at the office is that the faster we make the CPUs,
the more of the performance is sucked out by the guys in Redmond.

Sounds like a mutually beneficial situation. ;-)

But in both the case of the CPU and the OS, the customer has the
ultimate choice. If AMD offers more bang-per-buck, then they
flock over there, and vice-versa. And if you have an application
that will run on Linnux/etc. then you can skip the MS bloatware.

I thought MS was supposed to be working on an efficient, non-
bloatware OS variety, but I haven't heard about it recently.
