"Recent and controversial benchmarks for Windows 7 leave an important
question unanswered: 'Is it faster than GNU/Linux?' Here, at last, is a
benchmark that pits Ubuntu, Vista and Windows 7 against each other on the
same modern hardware. From install time to GUI efficiency, Ubuntu beats
Windows and is often twice as fast. Where Windows 7 is competitive, the
difference is something the average user would not notice. The average
GNU/Linux user is now getting better absolute performance from their
computer as well as better value than the average Windows user."
SO IT MUST REALLY SMOKE VISTAPOKE.
