Windows 7 comes with a Win XP SP3 Virtual Machine(not crummy compatibility mode) so you can continue to use your favourite XP software.

Yes I would certainly say Windows 7 uses less resources and is faster than Vista. From a cold boot I can open Firefox and surf Canreef.com in less than 45 seconds, with Vista this probably took two full minutes to do.

Try processing 6000 GPOs and see how quickly it boots
