Then you have nothing to worry about, since you are not a Vista user.
However, if and when mandated to upgrade down the road, if
contingencies aren't in order for migrating apps (let alone help),
you're dead in the water.

As someone who is 99% help user and barely 1% help

certainly worth looking into, but I have mission-critical
apps I've been using for years, some of which were
made by companies that no longer exist and have no
contemporary equivalents. If Vista can't run these
with no loss of functionality, then regardless of
whatever else the OS may add, it's out of a job here.
