Hrm. I've been running Vista for three months now and have encountered no problems whatsoever. Yes, UAC is a pain, but there's a way of disabling that. Yes, not all hardware have Vista-compatible drivers but that's certainly not just Microsoft's fault, and that problem is definitely not inherent to the functionality of the OS but is due to the fact that the OS is new. And, yes, there are a lot of programs that don't run in Vista but, again, that's not inherent to the OS. XP had been around for years; of course almost all programs NOW are going to work with it. We just have to wait a bit with Vista.
