vista is faster than xp

this is probably the same test microsoft did when they made the same claim

xp booting on a 10 1/2 year old machine, vista booting on a 6 month old machine. vista also gets help from google chrome, the xp machine runs internet explorer. the race was to get to google.com first

specs:
---------------------
xp machine
466 mhz pentium 3
192 mb ram
running internet explorer 7
--------------
vista machine
2.6 ghz core 2 duo
3 gb ram
cheating by google chrome in offline mode

no.. you used google chrome on vista instead of internet explorer..

we know that google chrome is faster than internet explorer..

i think xp wins!!

@jahzielpoh dude.... you missed the whole point of this. i gave vista 4x more power than xp had, & used a faster browser & it still just BARELY beat xp. they marketed that vista was faster than xp, im thinking this is the test they used to back that up

Windows XP is faster than Windows Vista we all should know that, cause Windows XP has less junk on the startup other than Windows Vista has bunch of stuff on startup.Microsoft made big mistake releasing Windows Vista i think they should invent about a year more on Vista and it would be awesome i guess.

And Windows Vista has alot of those smooth animations and glass themes that make it run slower.

Great example on how every aspect except the thing you're testing itself has to be constant. :D
