I'm surprised that Infoworld could actually publish these benchmarks.  Here
is another Gripe Line that addresses this:

Microsoft doesn't like it when they look bad.(They've been in a bad mood
since the mid 90's!)  It seems that each OS that MS puts out is slower than
it's predecessor.

Well, they must have done something wrong!
According to M$ (I checked their website several days ago),
XP is much faster, And Better, than any of their other OSes.

Those guys at InfoWorld must have really lousy techs! ;)
