A lot faster then 2kpro and XP ever was for me. You got to know how to tweak it though. A lot of people just think it's a prettier version of XP and never really try to learn anything about it. Like all windows versions it's pretty bloated out of the box. Only shut it down once every few months to blow the dust out of the case.

System specs
Opteron 165 overclocked @ 2.7Ghz
2gigs ddr500
x1900xt
I don't want something I have to tweak out of the box to run better...I want something that is minimal out of the box that I tweak to beef up

that is how xp is for me, I can install a fresh copy, do all the updates and it is a pretty slim OS with bare bones only loaded from a fresh install.....vista was instant bloatware, I guess if I had a few days of free time to tweak it out and research shit, it would be great, but I just don't have that kind of time
