Interesting… Maybe I am really fucked up but I don’t see where I said that anywhere in my post… It’s a given that it is going to be more resource hungry than Windows XP, now that is trying to get the OS X look, just not THAT resource hungry. I guess you are just upset that your favorite site sucks.

Not my opinion, just a general fact that the Inquirer is a rumor mill and will post just about anything without credible sources. In this story we have a CHAP as there source… BRILLIANT
