ps ive started a new thread with a poll to get the general opinion
I install servers and networks for small/medium businesses and the stability issues are with 3rd party software, such as accounting packages (Sage, Opera, Quickbooks etc), BACS packages, bespoke business apps etc. If the people who wrote this software and pulled their fingers out and done proper beta testing these issues wouldnt be as serious.
A big problem i've found is with account packages that create invoices using a PDF printer (like MS office image write type thing)
Vista doesn't support kernel drivers, which these virtual pdf printers use. Amyuni are soon to sort this but the software packages have to include these updates before the problems get fixed
