I run vista and have not upgraded because of the same kind of stories I have heard from many people. It took me ages to get vista working as good as my old win2k or xp computer.
I really think windows just gets worse and worse with each renaming.
Vista runs like shit on my quad core computer, programs crash all the time, then it annoys me asking about reporting it to microsoft...It came with my pc, so I stuck with it. Someday when I have time, I'm going to wipe out vista and install windows 2000 server.
Yes I'd rather run a 10 year old os if that means more stability, less interference from microsoft, less eye candy, less of everything that annoys me about windows. Unfortunately, many of us still need to deal with the nightmare called windows for work...
I feel your pain... My best advice? Rollback to xp or win2k server.

I'll be staying with XP for the foreseeable future.
