I think the computer that would most benifit is a laptop with 4-8 GB of ram on Vista x64. The reason for this is that most laptops come with slow 5400- RPM drives and Vista sucks at file reads/writes on the ATA bus. This is most laptops out there on the market right now.

I would like to test this is on such a laptop, but I don't have one handy that I can devote to the test for the two days it takes to setup. Maybe next week. Most of mine have 7200 RPM drives.
