Performance won't just be better with XP, your laptop will literally fly away.
Vista is just a really big hog... and it's certainly not something that computers older than the Core 2 or Athlon64 X2 generation should mess with. It's good if you just want to work, though. For gaming... XP is still a big "yes."
