Just an update; I'm liking some of the features of Vista but there are others that I can do without. Application compatibilty seems to be the biggest threat that I assume will be addressed in a future service pack. Overall, it's not bad if you have relatively new hardware but I don't recommend installing it on anything that is over a year old or you may run into driver issues as well as the before-mentioned application compatibility.

When I get some more time, I'll post a list of what applications I know work with Vista....
