Good point. But maybe it's my processor that is causing me to suffer? Can't think of anything else because all my other hardware is upgraded.

well, if they didn't state "performance improvements" in the list of fixes, i wouldn't expect any... errr.... performance improvement.

Hard Disk Drive Speed? 72,000 rpm
