I foolishly bought a new HP computer last Autumn that had VISTA installed. Thanks in part to HP’s Helpdesk and the good people hereabouts, I have now installed XP (it is super, SP3 included).
On one of my blogs I have a Google gadget that tests and reports upload and download speeds. I have found that with the XP installation (totally replacing Vista – i.e. not dual boot) my upload and download speeds are three times better – sometimes more.
I wondered if this has been reported elsewhere? As far as I am concerned this is another nail in Vista’s coffin!
