Benefits of Vista

Tags: vista, microsoft, operating system
Thinking of switching to Vista? Here is some information you should know. For more information check out www.microsoft.com
| | Better virus protection |
| | Has higher performance and is easier for developers to use than Windows XP |
| | Improved Power Saving Modes. Vista allows your computer to hibernate and come back to working mode more quickly than XP. |
| | Improved memory management with the use of technology called SuperFetch. SuperFetch learns which applications are most used and preloads them to your memory. |
| | It also makes sure that background applications (such as virus scanners) don't take precedents over foreground activities. |
| | Takes advantage of external memory. By pluging in that spare USB key, Windows can cache a lot of the working set to it. It's not as fast as your system RAM, but it's much faster than randomly grabbing small bits of data from all over your hard drive. |
| | If the drivers fail the whole system will not crash. You will also be able to update a driver without having to reboot. |
| | Increase security |
| | Better networking interface |
| | Increased download speed |
| | Improved Media Center |
| | Built in speech recognition |
| | Better Audio fidelity |
| | You will be able to control volume by application. For example you can turn down your AIM sounds when listening to music at full blast. |
| | New larger version of DX10 only available on Vista. |
| | New built in applications |

Sounds suspiciously like a Microsoft ad blurb and the improved performance claim is extremely debatable.
