Not to mention the insane memory requirements of Vista. I couldn't even use the beta on my Dell with 512 MB of RAM since it was so slow.

I think the biggest software incompatibility problems I've heard are DivX (won't even install), AVG Anti-Virus, ZoneAlarm, WS-FTP, Second Life, Adobe Premier, Winamp, WinRAR, Paint Shop Pro, and iTunes.

Well PSP is my graphics program of choice because I can't afford photoshop so if I can't run that, it will be an issue for me. iTunes, yeah, that too.

Thanks to everyone who has responded, I appreciate the feedback.

This just shows me I need to do much more research and also just chill out until it is time to order the new toy. Unless my current, doddering old PC gives up the ghost in between now and the fall, I'm good to go.
