RE: Basic questions

1) Interesting. Admittedly, I haven't been using cPlay on the AMD platform for quite a while. I guess the new versions of cPlay are much less demanding in terms of CPU processing power. Still, I think the lack of SSSE3 support (the SSSE3B9 version sounds much better than the SSE2 one on my Intel cMP Transport) and higher clock speeds (more EMI) of AMD "e" CPUs are the main reasons why Intel is favored over AMD.

2) I haven't tried Win7 yet, but I've installed and removed Vista twice. I can't remember the details, but the biggest differences that I recall are the number of services running (four or five must be left active on Vista, while you only need two for XP), and the implementation of minlogon.

3) :)
