Even with the SP1 update, Win XP SP2 still outperforms Vista with the

I hope MS gets it together before it is time for me to buy a new
computer.


Can I ask what you do with your computers that you are so concerened
with a couple of miliseconds here and there? Seriously.


Actually with my applications that use a lot of computing power, I
don't want the OS slowing things down more. I use ADT, Revit, RAM
structure and STAAD. The modeling software like RAM and STAAD eat a
lot of memory.

You do know that more physical RAM is addressable by applications in Vista
than in 32 bit WinXP Professional?
