Then the vast majorty of people are muppets!

Concider this,
I run HL2 on a Win2k platform. Windows 2000 doesnt look pretty, but it uses very little resource wise. I get a frame rate of about 90.

I then run it on Longhorn, which is already USING some of the 3d gfx rendering actions to draw its gui..My Framerate drops to 60.

Obviously, without the release of Longhorn, thats mearly hypothetical, however its based on information avaliable.

Newer = Better isnt always the right answer, and people who think it is.. need a good sporking :/
