Here's my experience with vista and ableton live so far.
Screen Redraw - Data on the screen refreshes on the screen much more slowly and its jerky, which makes everything feel slower.
Blue screen of death - I use a MPD16 on occasion, which has some known issues on XP which will cause it to crash the system if you leave it in for a while. However, in Vista, if I plug in the mpd16, the computer will crash the instant I click on ableton live.
Slower performance - I've heard some people say vista runs ableton live faster. I've had the opposite experience. This is a new laptop with 2 gigs of ram, 2 ghz.
Since I've got Vista through my workplace account, that makes me an "early adopter" so I'm not surprised these issues are popping up. I just hope everyone else is getting the same ones. I hope I'm not missing anything.
Anyone else have a similar experience?

Won't be upgrading anytime soon. I have about 100 plugins that I need to be operational in Vista. I know Reason is ready and Emu is promising "bigtime" compatibility. Don't know about Ableton, Native Instruments, Waves, Arturia, LinPlug, Antares, Nomad, and others from whom I own software. I sure hope Vista's new audio stack can peform better than XP when is comes to music softare, otherwise there is no point.

wait ........ live runs great on XOP and so do all the plugs etc you will asking for trouble. I have run it on a MBPro and it is definitlly slower than XP in redraws
I have a 256meg ATI card
I think for use audio guys stability and compatibilty is paramount.
So like we waited for SP1 of XP the general IT consensis is the same for Vista
