And another point is worth to note that Vista is slower in general
that Win XP, Windows Mail is much slower that Outlook Express
and any Search in Vista is well behind Win XP search.
Not to mention that my Win XP runs not on
Duo 2 Core CPU 6600 2.40GHz, 2399 Mhz,
As Vista does, but just on a single Pentium 4 - 3.0 GHz.
