"Fast" Windows 7 vs. Ubuntu

So the new windows is getting rave reviews for being "fast".  Mostly cause it's better than Vista.  But that's like beating a 93 year old man at a race and claming to be "fast".  From what I understand it's still not as fast as XP.

But let's compare "new" Windows 7 vs the last Ubuntu edition on the same hardware.

Not even close.
