9. DVD playback in Windows Media Player or Media Center will only play in interlaced mode making it VERY ugly

10. The "open with" feature is gone. When I use to right click on a data file, you can click "open with" and choose a new program to open the file or pick something on the list of applications you've used before. That list of recent applications for opening data files is gone which is very frustrating

11. Power save settings are hidden in a deep mess, and changes to the settings aren't saved

12. Minor changes in hardware will sometimes prevent Vista from booting up.

13. This mainly affects businesses but there are limits on how Vista can be used under Virtualization

14. Lack of stable drivers

15. Firefox is hosed on Vista, it does not remember your settings, turned off toolbars come back, bookmarks won't bookmark. This is firefox's fault for hardcoding system paths, but it's still enough to keep me from using Vista

16. VS 2003 won't run in Vista and VS 2005 has plenty of problems

17. SQL server won't run on Vista

18. Since Firefox doesn't work you're forced to use IE7, which freezes constantly under Vista

19. Once activated on one computer Vista will refuse to activiate on any other.

20. The scrollwheel on a mouse causes the area where the user last clicked to scroll, regardless of the mouse's actual position on the screen.

21. Major computer manufacturers are now reverting to Windows XP due to customer demand. Companies that produce games recommend sticking with XP.
