It has native apps which makes it much faster.
Also, the touch screen IS worth a lot.

I broke my install of 7.3.3 on Vista by installing Cisco Speed Meter.
This added a bucket-load of drivers in the network stack, and triggered

After you wired it, did you go through network setup? If not, it's
probably still using wireless. Press and hold the (back/left) button

If you're sure it's using Ethernet, you may want to check if there's

I've been streaming all day on 7.3.3 - Rhapsody no less, in my shop,

Check your network :)
