Why is Linux Faster than Windows?

| So, it seems to me the primary reason why Linux runs faster than Windows is
| because it is better designed to work with hardware, in the context that it
| handles operations in a more efficient manner than Windows.spacer_gif Why is

| In my opinion, I also get the perception, that perhaps the development of
| Linux is guided by people who seek to maximize performance. It does not
| appear to be developed predominantly by those who seek to maximize
| profits.spacer_gif Why is Linux Faster than Windows?

| I am talking about both operating systems running on the exact
| same hardware. Linux will still run faster than Windows, and I
| am including Vista under the Windows umbrella. I am also not
| talking about the fluff and thunder of the window managers and
| desktop finery. I am talking about the guts of the operating
| systems.
