Malware writers appear to be much further along in developing malware for Vista than the security industry is in making products to protect the new operating system. Speaking exclusively to IT PRO, Tim Eades, senior vice-president of sales at security company Sana Security said that 38 per cent of malware is already Vista-compatible. "Malware writers have gone through the WHQL list to make sure that their code works on new machines," he said. "They have managed to port code to Vista quicker than the security industry."

what compability? does all Your apps works in vista or You need to update them?
When I tried vista my apps did work actually. But they where slow and also looked a bit weird unless I used the classic style. So yes, there is backward compatibility but you'll still need to upgrade your apps.
