The Battle of the Cores

Multi-core computers that is and it seems Vista still lacks luster compared to XP and surprisingly even against the RC of the upcoming Windows 7. The world as it seems still belongs to Xp even with it being repetitively announced for ending it’s support cycle. The system is stable and has withstood the test of time which compared to Vista that has all but flopped it may still outlive the rest of the operating systems out on the market.
Windows has been and is still one of the most used operating systems all over the globe but with two versions already in the wild, it seems people still love their XP installs over the more secure Vista (so they say). Multi-core processors were in fact developed in the age of XP and the 32-bit operating system. Though also available in 64-bit it soon became apparent that not too many applications and gadgets supported 64-bit computing even with the multiple cores that have been loaded onto one single package. Mostly used for high-end business applications they have little use for home users and the rest of us normal folk.
