I run Vista on a Mac as well, for GIS applications, and QuickBooks is much better in the Windows environment. When I got a new Mac running 10.5, I couldn't use Virtual PC any longer, and as a result I had to purchase a new copy of Windows, since my XP license was part of VPC 6. I wasn't real thrilled about that, especially since I had to choose - XP or Vista. I figured if I had to spend the money, I might as well get Vista since it would be the OS of the future and I would just get it now rather than later. Now the rumours of the next Windows OS being on the way and the possibility that Vista becomes an orphan as a bigger share of users migrate from XP to the newer, post-Vista OS ... well that is extremely irritating. I haven't liked Microsoft since I started learning DOS 1.0 oh so very long ago. Anyway, my impression is most wargames that run on XP should run fine on Vista? Are there really very many programs that you can't use with Vista? As far as games, I would think the ones on-the-bubble in this regard would be the heavy graphics processing 3D shooters? Fortunately, CyberBoard runs perfect on Vista...kind of the same answer as wifzimmerman.
