Hello all: I recently had to uninstall Vista Business 64-bit on my wife's computer as Windows Mobile Device Center would not work properly with several applications she needs for her smart phone. The computer in question is a home-built unit with an Asus A8v mobo, AMD 4800 X2, 2 GB ram, sata HD, ATI 1600 video card.
I am completely amazed at how much faster the system is with XP on it rather than Vista 64-bit. It has got to be 50% faster (perceived speed). I am debating removing Vista from my HP laptop and going back to XP.
Not trying to flame-bait here, just an observation. Chris.
