I am interested in finding out WHY there is this delta between the two OSs.
I dual boot XP Professional and Vista Ultimate on my laptop.
I ran the benchmark in this Mandelbrot Explorer program:

These are my results:
Vista's Execution time: 71.074 sec.
XP's Execution time: 39.969 sec.
I've had similar results on quad-core boxes.
Vista on my Q6600@2.4GHz: 32 sec.
XP on my friends Q6700@2.9GHz: 8 sec.
I can't understand what makes the difference.
I would like to understand, if someone has a legitimate idea.
BTW, PLEASE! keep your Vista bashing to yourself and on /.
Thanks in advance.
