In some ways, it reminds me of Millenium Edition (ME), except that this took 6 years to develop, only to become the resources hog stemming from the basic problem: too much code.

7 will be to Vista what XP was to 2000/ME; the product that should've came forth in the first place, but was pushed aside for loftier reasons.
Bloated code is exactly why it needs the prefetch. So even though memory is cheap, thank the once against tossed together software for creating a need for more or faster hardware.
