Yes, that's the absolute truth. I read the explanation and understood what was being said, but I can't find the explanation again. As I recall, it had to do with data being queued up to be written faster than the actual copy took place. In XP, the UI was freed-up more quickly than it is/was in Vista because Vista gave a FULL copy time from start-to-end. Now copying will go back to the XP way. Perception is reality.
sorry.
