Programs that have been written to follow MS guide lines generally work
OK. Many drivers need to be re-written, that will be an issue for a while
as the h/w manufacturers catch up (it was with XP at first), drivers are
usually free though.
Apps that have previously 'got away' with going to places they shouldn't
have gone won't generally work as Vista is more secure. It's likely that
upgrading those apps will cost.
