That quote scares me - I hope they don't mean the same way that Vista does. There are still some people saying things like Vista runs fine on my home machine - not realizing it can be significantly faster with XP. I'm not saying well designed code can't use more powerful hardware to be even faster - it definitely can - unfortunately MS tends to make code that requires new hardware just to do what the old OS did at the same speed on old hardware.
