Compare between OS Window 7 and Vista

Posted on October 28, 2009 - Filed Under Laptop

Hello with me again , now we talk about window 7 and window vista , window 7 is the new microsoft Operating system, that i think is better that vista ,would you like to read my review here is my review ..With the release of a new operating system, one of the first questions that pops into your head–besides how much it is going to cost you–is if it will increase the performance of your machine. Newer operating systems are usually more optimized, designed to start quicker, load programs faster, and increase performance with better drivers. With that question in mind, we took two identical Lenovo ThinkPad T400s loaded with Windows Vista or Windows 7 and compared every facet relating to performance.

To make this article relevant to consumers, we picked two identical systems with factory images (operating system installatons). One included the latest configuration of Windows Vista Business and the other Windows 7 Professional. They were both manufactured on 9/10/09 and are only four serial numbers apart. These systems match even down to the most basic internal hardware. To compare the system performance of both machines, we created a level playing field by removing the same bloatware from each machine including AV software and gave each laptop the same custom power profile in the Lenovo power manager.

The Lenovo ThinkPad T400s configurations included the following hardware:

* Windows Vista Business SP2 32-bit or Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
* Graphics: Intel X4500M Integrated
* Screen: 1440 x 900 WXGA+ LED Backlit (Matte finish)
* Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo SP9600 (2.53GHz, 1066MHz FSB, 6MB Cache)
* Memory: 4GB DDR3 RAM (2GB x 2)
* 128GB Toshiba SSD
* Optical Drive: DVD+/-RW
* Wireless: 802.11a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.0
* Battery: 6-cell 11.1 44Wh

General Performance
In the first section of the performance review, we compare daily activities of each system. This includes tasks such as boot times, shutdown time, sleep time, and wake from sleep time. These are activities the user has to sit through multiple times a day, meaning that a few seconds here or there really adds up over time. Both systems were set to automatically log in, without a password prompt to delay the process. The timer was started either when the power button was pressed, or the appropriate button inside the operating system was clicked. For the power-on sequence the timer was stopped when the system was at the desktop, idle and waiting.

Measuring the boot times side by side was pretty interesting, since our Windows 7 system turned on almost 30% faster than the Vista machine. We expected both machines were going to be quick with their relatively clean installs and SSDs, but coming in under 30 seconds was impressive for the Windows 7 system.
