oh sure than.
1.vista supports only NTFS, while XP supports NTFS and FAT32 (but it doesnt really matter unless you are trying to use some seriously old things).
2.Vista annoys you to death with the UAC notes. i dont really know if it provides any extra security, maybe only for people who dont understand what are they running.
also, windows defender is a freeware, you can download it with xp from microsoft's site. but i personally think its not worth it, a good antivirus is better. vista is also newer than xp, so there might be more security holes in it.
3.i dont think vista has any special tools in it, besides windows media center or whatever its called, but i heard very few feedbacks on this one.
4.AFAIK Vista has some serious compatability problems with software designed for XP or older versions of windows.
by the way, vista SP2's beta is already out and i heard it has some really nice improvements, mainly bugfixings, supporting Blu-ray burning and easier Wi-Fi and bluetooth connections.
oh also, you might want to mention DirectX 10 which is only supported on vista will be very helpful for gamers.
