It was just an example from my experience today. It does exemplify my 
experience of 
using (trying to use) Windows over the years.

Windows 7 feels faster than Vista SP3 on my VM with the same memory and cpu 
specs. I 
think that I'd probably be satisfied with Win7 as my dev box if I had to. With 
cygwin 
installed for the command line tools I rely on, that is. I couldn't say that 
with any 
version of Windows since NT4 in 1996, when I didn't yet know about Linux, and 
when 
Darwin wasn't yet around on Mac.
