How?

One moment they say it won't run on less than a dual-core P4-4GHz+, then they say it will run on the same hardware as XP and faster.

Which is it.

This has happenned for years. MS have said every version of Windows has run faster than the previous one on the same hardware. Now that says to me that I should be able to run Win XP faster that Windows 2.0 on a 286 with 16 MB of ram.

As usual it's all bull.
