It didn't run the programs I use daily and network traffic is SLOW - Nothing will make it like XP when those two things are why I hated it. If Vista works great for you then more power to you! Keep using it, but I have to ask:
Tell me exactly why you think a power user would have to TURN OFF defrag instead of RUNNING defrag? A power user knows when to defrag their HD. A grandma doesn't. Isn't that the complete opposite of what a power user would want?

Hmm are talking about it running to index your files to make searches and your computer in general speed up? I edit and move HDV files around my network all day long with no issues. I edited video on XP pro and on Vista. WAY less issues using vista to edit. And the software you mentioned not working is freeware correct? I just don't get how people have so many issues. I built my main desktop and rendering boxes. All running Vista, and all have no problems. My laptop came with Vista already installed. No problems. I must have the super special editions. And yes I am a power user. My cpus run at 100% 30 to 40% of the day while video is rendering, or I am batching photos etc. I reboot maybe once every 2 weeks if that. Haven't had any crashes, no incompatibility issues nothing. *shrugs*
