Here are some shots of how my system looks as I write this in TypePad via Firefox. I run through everything about once a week, which seems to keep the TZ running exactly as it did on day one. My housekeeping routine includes Windows’ system tools (disk cleanup and defragmenter) and Uniblue’s PowerSuite (RegistryBooster, SpeedUpMyPC, and SpyEraser). Even though I have between 84 and 87 processes running at all times and always take advantage of Aero and Windows Sidebar, I honestly see no reason to disable or tweak anything to improve performance. I’m not much of a system tweaker, so I actually haven’t optimized Vista at all. CPU:ĥ33MHz FSB, 2MB L2 cache RAM: 2GB 533MHz DDR2 OS: Windows Vista Business Storage: 100GB Ultra ATA, 4200 rpm Graphics: Intel GMA 950, 945GMS chipset Video RAM: 224MB Optimization Since I mentioned "zippy performance" in my first impressions piece and I couldn’t offer any analysis of the benchmark results yielded by the U7500 and 2GB of RAM combination of my TZ170N, I’d like to share some additional numbers and details that should put everything into some real-world context.īefore I go on, here are some specs of the TZ170N that are relevant to performance.
