You can use generic words in trademarks (ie: Windows). However, the fact that your mark is generic will prevent you from trying to claim infringement against someone using it in a market outside the one you've registered the mark for. You can only do that if your mark is considered unique and non-generic.
Let's see, vista is a generic word, windows is a generic word, so Microsoft would have no grounds for claiming infringement against a glazier registering "Vista Windows" as a trademark...
