PC World Tests Final Version of Vista SP1

Posted by Zonk on from the could-be-worse dept.

Mac writes "PC World ran the final version of Windows Vista SP1 through a first set of tests last night. Here's the bottom line: 'File copying, one of the main performance-related complaints from Vista users, was significantly faster. But other tests showed little improvement and, in two tests, our experience was actually a little better without the service pack installed than with it.'"

    You don't actually expect competence from PC World do you?

    Interesting the also claim to have sped up SMB file copies... given that they topped out at about 5kb/sec on a gigabit LAN on the original SP1 prerelease I should hope so!
