Had bluescreen a fair bit.
Now on to Vista, it used to lock up a bit, but now it seems to be okay for some reason. I'm soooort of taking to it, but it is bloody annoying with its security alerts:
OH HOLY SHIT, YOU JUST MOVED THE MOUSE, ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DO THAT?
[click yes]
OH HOLY SHIT, YOU JUST CLICKED THE MOUSE, ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO THAT?

I've been using it for 6 months now, and wouldn't go back. I find it crashes *far* less than XP ever did, and I use it like a bastard. Benefits: It supports my DX10 8800GTS, and my 4GB RAM (though XP 64 would do this too).
It's also noticeable faster than XP for almost everything I do.
