    I am quite fussy i am still using windows xp lol. Cant stand any of the new OS etc.

    Windows 7 is faster than XP and works much more smoothly. The Windows Media Centre in 7 is excellent as well. If you stay with XP you're missing out imo.

    Listening to music via vlc right now, and just noticed the 'cone' has a santa hat, how've they done that?

    I think you'd find it does. And the Windows Media Centre in 7 is way better than vlc! I'm going to start calling you Caveman.

    Incorrect sweeping statement. On YOUR hardware it might be faster. You have no idea whatsoever what hardware the other person has so you are in no position to tell them that it WILL be faster. In fact, W7 might not even run on their hardware.

    In all the systems I've seen so far it's been faster and nicer to use. And XP isnt perfect, far from it.
