Windows 8 boot time is much much lesser then Windows 8, To hibernate and again resume PC, it hardly take 10 senconds (in My Case, PDC (2nd Gen), 2 GB). I want to switch to Windows 8 from Windows 7, but want to get satisfied first, that surely it will give me better performance then Windows 7.
So I am looking for Windows 8 vs Windows 7 like test, Benchmarks, Comparisons, Reviews, Test, Experiments, and found coupled of these on various sources, Have a look at these, surely it will freaked you out.
