    If I'm right, this notebook comes with DDR2 memory. And if you didn't upgrade that HDD, it should be 4200 rpm. If you want some real speed up, you should take a look at SSDs, but it wouldn't be cheap.

    And if you're talking just about software tweaking, I noticed nice speed up after I changed theme to Windows Classic in XP :)

    Your XPS M1730 is surely a bit different class of powerful machine :) I would say for TX the WinXP (or Win7) are more suitable. I guess you already checked the NBR Member Vist@ Tips and Tweaks Guide thread?
