"Windows Vista is Microsoft's next-generation desktop operating system. But does it provide next-gen performance on today's PCs vs. its predecessor, Windows XP?
The CRN Test Center set out to compare Vista's performance against XP's. The result: You might not want to move off XP just yet." "But the bad news was bad. Of the 18 tests in which XP beat Vista, the difference in seven of them was significant." "As suspected, Vista hampered .Net's performance as well." "The results show that Vista's memory architecture is significantly slower than XP. Microsoft released a product that will make many .Net applications run slower. At this point, we do not recommend running client-based .Net applications on Vista that require large data processing. And unless it's imperative that users have an operating system with a more exciting look and feel, XP will offer better performance than Vista." <http://www.crn.com/software/198702242;jsessionid=BEHVJTDTRZTSQQSNDLOSKHSCJUNN2JVN> _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
