I'm not convinced, work 8 does not run properly on Vista and the installs I've seen did throw up error messages during the process....

I am not convinced anything runs properly on Vista!!
I like playing with it (I dual boot Vista Ultimate and XP) but I would never get rid of XP because of all the niggles I find. I could never put my entire faith in it as a main OS.
However, Office XP is on the compatibility list:
