I've been running Vista 64 (and 32 on another machine the wife uses) for quite a while now. Both machines were built for Vista so have no compatibility issues with hardware. The only real pain was Quicken & Quickbooks, but Intuit have junked the UK Quicken and I never actually got the accounts migrated to Quickbooks, so the fact that the older version didn't run was not too much of an issue.

I've also just put in 2 Dell laptops running Vista 32 and Office 2007 for a local charity, these connect OK to the samba server and printer and I've (so far) had no issues reported.
