Slow -- Doesn't surprise me. I do this day in and day out.
If you're low on memory put in a requisition for 2 Gig -- if you can. That should help things along.

BTW - I just saw this feed again -- VISTA should be much faster than XP on boot.
That was part of the design. If not, your company should probably have rolled out new machines
before they engaged in upgrading existing PC's.
You use DELL?

I picked up a new PC recently that came with Windows 7. I only use the PC occasionally so I figured it was ok to test-drive the new OS on - but I still use Win XP for all my daily work.
I was never a Vista user - skipped it entirely. But from the little I saw of Vista and the lot I've seen of Windows 7, I'd say so far Windows 7 looks a lot like Vista but operates under the covers like WinXP. Installing non-Win7 applications can be painful sometimes - if possible at all.
