Why does Vista draw so much power from your PC? It could be the Digital Rights Management (DRM). DRM in Windows Vista is defined on this page in a quote from Bruce Schneier:

"Windows Vista includes an array of "features" that you don't want. These features will make your computer less reliable and less secure. They'll make your computer less stable and run slower. They will cause technical support problems. They may even require you to upgrade some of your peripheral hardware and existing software. And these features won't do anything useful. In fact, they're working against you. They're digital rights management (DRM) features built into Vista at the behest of the entertainment industry."
