I think that is one of Microsoft's greatest strengths and weaknesses. Weakness because it creates a huge amount of additional complexity in the OS. Strengths because is allows them to convince people to upgrade sooner since their applications that they already own will (supposedly) still work.
Personally, I haven't had any issues with Vista outside of trying to figure out where they have hidden certain features, but that happens on every new release (hell, I still drop into DOS to do certain things, even though I know it isn't really DOS - the commands still work).

I have several programs that don't work on my Vista such as Media Creator which I paid $80 for along with a bunch of games. That is what I really dont like about Vista.
