It's more performance inefficiencies than bugs, per se, with extreme lag despite no network congestion. However the keyword tagging through Windows photo gallery does seem to be buggy, but that may again be related to the general network/sync problems it seems to have. The OS is overall sluggish and tends to hang up on context switching between users. A 3 year newer, significantly more powerful machine is performing like (or worse than) our old laptop. It's frustrating.

We're also running Vista on the server machine, which doesn't see much day-to-day use from us users, and with that I've been very satisfied. It has never crashed and, as you said, requires reboots only for updates.
