What makes you think you want to go back? When vista first came out there were some driver issues and some programs wouldn't run, it's been over a year and service pack 1 is out...the driver base for vista is huge and finding programs is simple. You may not be able to run that 9 year old piece of software you have, but I have yet to find something I needed to do I couldn't. And that's with running 64bit vista.
Don't buy into the negative hype...it's windows for good or bad.
