I'm sure when Vista SP2 is RTM'ed, it will leave XP in the dust.

Replace "I'm sure" with "I hope" and you'd be correct.

Yeah, "hope" for sure. File transfers in Vista SP1 are STILL slow,
particularly with USB. Ever tried to format a 1TB external HD in Vista? (USB
2.0) How 'bout a percentage point around every 30min. Canceled the format,
rebooted to XP, got 'er done in under 1.5 hours. Think they will fix the
icon views in folders to stay put as set whthout useless hacks? Etc, etc,
etc.. I'll believe it when I see it. Furthermore, why on earth would they
want to make Vista as good as Win7? Who would move to Win7 then? ..Just a
thought.

There is no chance that they would do that. None. LESS than none, if
that were possible.

Besides, it would take a major re-write, and service packs aren't that
involved.



I'm testing Win7 now, but to get real world comprehensive comparisons, I
will be setting it up as identical to my Vista Ultimate as possible. Then we
will see. So far there are things I like, and things I don't. IE8 is a slug
in some areas so far. Oh and here's a good one, resizing a window is not
persistent. Next time you open the program, sizing is different. (Went from
icon views to windows?) That's fun.. NOT.. So that's new, never had that
problem in Vista. Ah but it is a beta, so we will see what the fix is... So
here we go...

G'day
