This long article shows the drop down performance using Vista as a game machine with current generation games


it looks like Microsoft has a lot of work to do...

Even without the results of the gaming tests it is clear that Windows Vista Beta 2 is too “raw” a product to be used for everyday activities. Well, its Beta status doesn’t promise anything. The problems in the new operating system are quite expectable at the current stage of its development, but this is only a temporary thing. Bugs will be eliminated, stability will be raised to the necessary level, and the hardware requirements will become more modest than today when a lot of OS components aren’t yet polished off.

Well, it is a BETA version... hopefully they will have worked the bugs out by the time of the official release (hey, we can dream, right? :P)

Yes...
But usually from beta you get to final product with some changes not GIANT ones.
i hope we don't need to wait to VISTA SP2 util it will be a stable one...
if i look at the Win XP case:twisted:
