One of the big slowdowns with windows is version tracking all of teh various DLLs that are "the same" but different, or maybe different. This gets worse with updates, etc. and as time goes on.

Take a given system, wipe windows totally, reinstall and apply only latest set of patches/updates (instead of a year+ of version and update changes/tweaks) and you'll see some perceptible speed come back to the same hardware and software that was running slow and laggy before that.
