Let me start off by saying I'm a huge Microsoft fan...
I have a new machine for work that came with a Vista Business upgrade...which wasn't too bad, except that it took over 2 hours, and I had to remove many incompatible programs.
Now that I have Vista running - it's neat-looking, but a little hard to get used to. Everything is just a little different, or in a new spot, which will be frustrating for a while.
BUT I'm also finding out (the hard way) that many of the programs I use for work (like an older version of Visual Studio, PGP, ...and random things like my FTP client) no longer function. AT ALL. Every program has a new version (you can purchase) that might work, but it's made my job nearly impossible.
I find myself asking, "Now...why did I do this?"
If you're thinking about moving to Vista, be ready to buy new versions of every program you own.
