My company notebook uses Vista, and it works fine.I have had no crashes on my system (which is somewhat noteworthy because you never know what happens if you make a grave error in your code - though as C# is a managed language, there aren't that many risks). My system is a bit slow from time to time, but that might be because I run Visual Studio 2005 (sometimes with two instances) and a debug version of our new software. The main issue - if there is any - is that the new User Account Control  often shows warning messages and demands me to confirm a specific action. But this is in a big part due to the fact that older software doesn't use the recommended interfaces or guidelines for Vista (or XP, but XP didn't care about it). Once software developers get accustomed to this, they will put out software that will provoke less messages.The DRM question is nothing that concerned me much, and it doesn't have anything to do with Vista itself, but with the demands for using the new video formats.</blockquote>
