My company is pushing that everyone switch to Vista on new laptops. I am using Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 right now and had to fix some compatibility issues. I could push for XP and go through HR, but I also could just get accustomed to Vista just for experience sakes.
Any experiences with development and Vista? Pros/Cons?

No programming issues with vista per-se. Vista SP1 has been rock solid for me.
However, I run Vista Ultimate 64-bit, so I have to target 32-bit, if I am using 32-bit compiled libraries.
Now that Vista has a few winters under its belt, it's gotten a lot better.
Just make sure you disable UAC ;)
