I wouldn't really agree with that. The Aero Glass UI is certainly slower because it's SO MUCH more graphically intense. The Aero Basic UI isn't so bad. But the OS itself is doing a lot more stuff than in the past... like "virtualizing" C:\Windows\*" for programs attempting to write user data into that directory.. same with C:\Program Files ... that's for backwards compatibility, but still allowing for some poorly written software to work correctly. The whole thing with files and processes having "Integrity Levels" now probably adds some overhead to the OS. The fact that administrative users now have TWO tokens instead of just one.... etc. There's a lot of OS stuff - particularly related to security - that adds quite a bit of overhead. Those are good things, though, for the most part. Increased security is always a good thing. -- > I'm not certified, but I have been told that I'm certifiable... > Visit http://www.opensourcecf.com today! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:226764 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
