XP is much quicker than Vista
"aftermath" wrote: I've been using Vista Ultimate now since the launch on one of my high end PC's. If I switch over to the XP PC, which is a hp 3.2GHz P4, you realize how slow Vista actually is. For example, if you open "Connect To" on a Vista PC to connect to some of my VPN connections, it takes it's time. The XP PC is instantaneous. I now find that there are allot of apps that exhibit the same issues. I know Vista is pretty and all that, but it takes twice as long to do the same thing as I did before. PS, the high end PC's rating is 5, and that's because of the processor having the lowest rating of 5 - (1.86 Core 2 Duo). Maybe it's going to take time, SP1 might resolve these issues in the near future, but in my professional opinion, Vista is slow compared to XP Every iteration of Windows has been slower then the previous with its larger code base and enhanced capabilities.
