I have the Action Pack and that comes with Business. I have it installed on 4 PC's and Ultimate on 1. All are dual core with 2 gigs of ram and 256meg ATI or Nvidia video cards. Also have several PC's on XP still and various Linux distos. All at home, which is where I work.
My main work pc (Vista Business) drives dual 21" LCD's at 1600x1200 just fine and is, so far, way more stable than XP ever was for me. I routinely have multiple browsers open with between 4-8 tabs open in each, a VPN connection into work, XP running in Virtual PC 2007 with a VPN connection open into work, and various "made for windows 95 and NT" Oracle development programs running along with Outlook 2007, and other Office 2007 apps. I haven't had a single BSOD yet or overall system crash of any kind.
I swtiched to it when the Action pack showed up at the end of January and couldn't be happier.
I use Ultimate on my main gaming PC and other than crappy Nvidia SLI support, it's been smooth sailing as well.
I'm running Vista premium along with Office 2007 at work so I can familiarize myself with them in anticipation of whenever I start purchasing computers with Vista business. Definitely went with 2 gig of ram and a decent video card to run Aero.
They're both fairly stable. I've run into a couple networking quirks with Vista though which tells me I better wait a while before moving users to it. A couple times the OS has stalled out on me jumping around on network drives. Plus I'm still figuring out how I want UAC to run in a user environment. I definitely want it on, but want to tweak settings via group policy so I don't get a lot of calls.
I'll be sticking with XP as long as I can still get it. Running it at work has pretty much removed any desire to install it at home. I won't get Vista at home until I come across a game I absolutely want to see in Directx10 mode. Plus I'd like to see the 64bit mature some with driver support because I'd like to go with that and +4 meg o' memory on my next gaming rig.
I think it'll be a good business OS, just need to prepare for the calls from new users.
