The only thing I worry about with windows is it slowing as does a laptop or desktop machine the more you use it and put on it and as it ages?

I've not found that on Windows 7 tbh, Windows XP realyl suffered that because it didn't do 'house keeping tasks' itself, Vista and 7 do.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I've not read all of the replies but we had this discussion at work the other day. The boss has an Ipad and another lifeguard has a notebook. Ipad looks very nice and in terms of street cred it's higher but over half of us rather have a notebook as you can do more with it and overall it's a better package.
