Win 7 on multicore not faster than XP

[I am Penguin]

I'm sure the Win XP virtual machine will outperform Win XP native.

I have no issues, if it really performs well I can more than afford a dozen Retail copies. I just don't see a need.

Ahh, now you suddenly try to quickly change the argument and comparisons from "Native XP" to "XP virtual" running on windows7? Slick I must say. Good try!

Can you refer us with links to the reviews that did those specific tests? I would like to read them myself. Was that comparing "XP Virtual" on windows7 with "XP virtual" running on a XP machine or against a "XP native machine"? I would like to see the results for myself.

Flashback when OS/2 on a single processor was faster than WinNT on a quadprocessor system...

What quadprocessor was that?
