Hmmm, seems to be about power consumption.

And this one seems to be about fears that additional complexities in
Vista will cause further insecurities and other problems.
Actually the topic reminded me more of this:

| Microsoft's launch of Windows Vista could slow down or stall traffic

| Protocol, a technology standard used to send information over
| computer networks.
|
| "If you adopt Vista, your DNS traffic is going to double,"
| Mockapetris said in an interview. With many DNS servers already
| running close to capacity, this can have serious consequences, he
| said. "You're going to see brownouts. All of a sudden, it is going to
| be mud season on the Internet, where things will just be kind of slow
| and gooey."
