Windows XP and Vista Performance Comparison
,----[ Quote ]
| Even before Windows Vista was publicly released, there was a lot of
| concern from people beta testing the O/S. Running Windows Vista
| seemed to have a large performance drop for their PC when compared
| to Windows XP. Was it true? Or is it just scare tactics from
| Microsoft haters?

| So if you play Battlefield 2 or FEAR or any other popular game you are
| likely to get lower frame rates with Vista. That is certainly not a
| good buying argument but don?t think you and I have much choice as it
| looks like a take it or leave it deal. I like Vista as the 3D desktop
| looks sexy but that is probably its key feature.

| The firm has its Vista logo all over its boothm, but all the machines that
| we investigated were running Windows XP.

| Obviously, it is still not the right time to switch to Vista as things
| might be not stable for current games. We hope that they can meet the
| early 2007 schedules.
