From one LAC's website:
At this time, ITS is recommending that you NOT install Vista on your personal/home computers. In addition, ITS will NOT be installing Windows Vista on institutional computers for the fall of 2007.

ITS has been testing Vista extensively since last fall in order to develop a support model and to fully test compatibility with hardware and software used on campus. We, and other colleges, have found issues. Because this is a major upgrade to the operating system, bugs and incompatibilities are inevitable. Once sufficient testing is complete, recommendations will be developed to provide the best user experience.

They then go on to tell you what to do if you do have Vista on your computer.
