Thats 'bundled' software and graphics not really features. Does it perform better?
If you put XP and 2K on identical systems would XP run faster and smoother then
2K? Would you really want a MS firewall, after seeing what people have done in terms
of security breaching through other MS programs i'd be afraid to use any security
package that comes installed with a MS OS.
Finally, the amount of drivers
that comes with an OS means little, drivers should always be up to date and any set
of drivers on a CD is going to be older then what you can get online.
