Judging from the article and what I've read before, they've spend time on making sure interface and the system responsiveness improves a lot. That is what people usually consider as "fast", even if its fake-fast it looks faster. Its pretty much the only thing OS can do to appear faster anyways - You cant magically get more CPU power.
I agree. You can't get more CPU power just by installing a new OS. However, an OS can improve the utilization of said CPU - which is the case with Win7, Vista's CPU utilization was a joke IMO.
I myself will try Win7 when I get the chance, but I don't think that I will change my main OS. GNU/Linux & Mac Os X
