I have been using VPC since it came out.  When I moved from VPC6 to  
7, I had quite a few problems, mostly of instability, not speed. I  
have now (twice) completely reinstalled XP Pro in VPC7 and it is  
working OK now.  Start up time is definitely slower than it was for  
VPC6 (which was about 9 seconds) but is acceptable.
Fortunately, I rarely use it much.
I get the impression that with Microsoft it has not progressed.
