In the past week or so, Vista has become noticeably faster. I
loaded the two patches and installed a fast 2GB SD card for the
sake of ReadyBoost, but detected no obvious/immediate improvement.
This system (Core Duo @ 1.8GHz, 2GB RAM) has never had stability
issues so I cannot comment on that.
However, boot time is now down to about 85 seconds, which is the
same as XPPro. After boot, I use little TLB scripts to load
whatever app combinations are needed for the tasks at hand - and
they definitely settle down more quickly than before. And, there
is a utility (Palm installer) that never worked with Vista and
did NOT work immediately after I made those improvements - but I
just tried it and it works well!
Is it possible that the system has been doing some background
maintenance, or learning, after installation of those patches
and external memory?
It's a pleasure... though I'd like to gain a better
understanding of what happened so I can do more of it.

I also notice that my bald spot is filling in.
