XP will ALWAYS Be faster on the same hardware. Windows 2000 will be even faster than XP on the same hardware. It goes without saying that new operating systems and larger feature sets generally slow things down. The major benefits that Vista offers are unfortunately transparent to the users in the form of dramatically increased application security. The fact that programs will simply no longer be able to write USER data to SYSTEM folders like C:\Windows and C:\Program Files... or to SYSTEM registry keys like HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE instead of HKEY_CURRENT_USER where user data belongs. I see those kinds of improvements as benefits for *EVERYONE* whether they see it as a benefit or not.
