Operating System Of The Future (Vista) Performing my typical workflow (i.e. using my typical software) Vista provides noticeably lower performance than does XP.

Instead, software continually delivers different levels of user satisfaction to different users. It's up to the software maker to continually make the right decisions. Hopefully, Microsoft will continue to re-focus on: the end-user, quality, performance, reliability and usability. If they don't... I'm increasingly becoming enamored with Mac OS-X. http://dataland.wordpress.com/2007/12/10/vista-usability-drivers/

I personally find the differences between these two monoliths very fascinating. Times are definitely heating up as Google continually grows its internet presence, while Microsoft rallies its deep desktop market hold. It's Good stuff ...
