So i found these whilst browsing. This shows performance difference between them.

So Vista is getting there, it's loading applications faster then XP, although its 1 whole second in Photoshop performance and still 500 points behind XP in 3DMark, but 3DMark, was originally released on XP, so chances are the next 3DMark could maybe run better on Vista who knows.
Gaming on XP is still faster, but by a few FPS, it's not life or death difference. Unless your playing Crysis that is xD
At the bottom of his post he also compares SuperFetch on and off, the program that is hogging all your RAM to boost program start-up. It's definatley not useless! Remember though that system does have 8GB of DDR2 which would perform better than 2 or 4GB.
So SP1 is definatley bringing Vista forward. Shame we have no Vista vs. Vista SP1 on there though to se how much better SP1 is.
