Windows XP better than Vista

Windows XP outshines Vista in benchmarking test

A test of Windows XP vs. the new Windows Vista showed that XP is faster than Vista. With the Service Pack 3 for XP and Service Pack 1 for Vista being set to be released, the preliminary test of each OS with these new Service Packs showed that XP is faster. The service pack for Windows Vista is still being worked on and the one used for the test was a beta version. It has been discussed in class how slow things are getting with respect to computers as they are continually updated. This seems to be another result of that. I have heard a lot of bad things about Vista from friends who have it. But then again there was the time when Win2K was working faster than XP when it came out until machines were built tailored to XP but computer manufacturers have succeeded in delaying the use of Vista in all new computers made. Less people have converted to Vista as those who converted to XP right away. Microsoft is depending a lot on the new Service Pack to improve Vista in order for consumers to start relying on and converting to Windows Vista.
