Microsoft Vista Faster on a Mac Pro
Microsoft Vista Faster on a Mac Pro Than Apple's Own OS X

http://blog.wired.com/cultofmac/2007/01/running_vista_o.html#more

Ironically, one of the fairest reviews of Microsoft's Vista comes from Pete and Leander over at Wired's Cult of Mac blog. They tell us what the Vista experience is like on a Mac Pro using Bootcamp, with much praise.

Vista really flies on this beast, and feels like it's faster than OS X - it boots faster, folders burst open and apps launch instantly...I'm especially delighted with Vista's "glass" Aero interface, which works in all its glory on this machine...The OS is dark and handsome. It's really quite exciting...Vista's icons are big and colorful, and frankly, a lot more logical and easy to read than some of OS X's, like the intelligible iWeb icon.

1. Windows has been faster than OSX since the beginning
It's just recently that Macheads have had the opportunity to see it for themselves. I've never used a Mac at any price-point that can beat my $400 XP-64/Dual-core AMD machine.

"Vista's icons are big and colorful, and frankly, a lot more logical and easy to read than some of OS X's" Ouch, that's gotta sting. :)

2. Yeah but did you see it ???
Gates demoed it on TV this morning.. it's a joke compared to OSX.
I laughed out loud when he showed their photo app and claimed it
was better than anything in the market, Bwahahahahahahhaha.

Don't take my word for it. You gotta see it to believe it. It's sad.
