  • Does improve some features within Windows XP, Fewer system crashes than Windows XP, Offers better built-in support options
  • Does not put search on the desktop (its buried within applications, within the Start Menu), Optimised only for the Microsoft Windows ecosystem (for example, RSS feeds from Internet Explorer 7 get preferential treatment), Theres simply too much and not all...

  • Support de nouveaux formats et standards, amélioration de lexistant.
  • Gains en perfomances assez limités sur notre PC de test.
