Interesting. I am sure most apps are going to break simply because of the least user privileges security thing that MS has brought about in Vista.

I think most vendors are covered. Most business's have Secondary Logon disabled, so the whole 'Run As...' just doesn't work. The whole Fast User Switching is more of a Home thing.
