Actually, Vista does power saving by turning down the CPU speed and 
limiting the maximum speed.  Tom's Hardware is generally pretty 
cluefull, and their benchmarks are pretty well documented and all, but I 
wonder if they turned that off.  I'd read someone else say it could take 
a couple of seconds for your programs to get up to speed, but I thought 
that sounded pretty silly. Now I have to wonder if they were right and 
Vista really does keep the CPU slow for longer than I'd expect. Hmmmm...
