When I copied that into my testapp, I found that type inference simply wasn't working in that app, despite using VS2008 targeting the 3.5 framework. Is there something else that I need to set?

(in properties) Option Infer

and actually linq is always faster ... except in cases where you need to evaluate the same thing multiple times... such as:

Better had you said "except in cases where it isn't."

There have been other posted comparisons in the last two weeks (couldn't find them if I wanted to, though, because I don't even remember what the topic was) where LINQ was beaten by a straight iterative search. LINQ is cool and easy to use. If performance is a question, then testing is the only true answer.

@.Paul.: Have you even had one of those days when you could look right at something and not see it? I thought I ALWAYS had Option Infer On, but in my test app, it was off. That may have been because the test app was imported from 2005 using the 2.0 framework, which didn't have Option Infer, I think.
