Your test is misleading. Take the same 80 gig hd, put a fresh copy of XP on there, and then compare the speed. After two years of accumulated crap, windows will no doubt run far slower than when first installed.
I remember reading somewhere that a test was done on the same hardware, and XP booted faster than Win7, Win7 booted faster than Vista.
