It's slow, it gives no options, it gives no analysis before defrag, it gives
no progress bars, it gives no results, it gives no statistics.

I'M ****ED!

It was like that in the betas also, and a lot of people disliked it back
then. MS never changed it. Supposedly, the reasoning behind that is
because Vista defragments your HD in the background automatically, so
there's supposedly no need for all that information. Do I honestly
agree with that, no, but that's supposedly it.

Vista's new memory management features (ReadyFetch and Ready) have
essentially rendered fragmentation non-existent as a performance issue.
Even so, Vista still automatically defrags your drives for you on whatever
schedule you set. You can still do it manually as well.

If you really want to speed up performance, don't waste your money on a
defragger. Buy more RAM, or even a flash drive that works with ReadyBoost.
And let Vista do what little defragmentation still needs to be done.
