True - just look at who's suing them now (Adobe for PDF, Symanctec for imaging stuff...........) So would the DK people sue if MS ostensibly "improved" the defragger......???

they should at least make it so that it actually defragments the drive instead of fragmenting it, or doing nothing at all. I mean, the Diskeeper folks helped MS with the defrag.exe program in XP, it's just a very simplified version of the full program, so I don't see why they would have much of an issue if MS made at least a working defrag program and integrated it. Sort of defeats the purpose of including it if it doesn't work.

Not really. MS *paid* Executive Software to give 'em defrag.exe.
They'd be pissed if MS made their own kick arse defragger. Believe me.

Anyway, my benchmarks after defragging with Vista's internal were slightly higher, not worse... but that's just me whistle
