Number four:

Sometimes you click on something, and it takes a moment to start, and you 
aren't sure whether what you did worked, you don't always get your 
hourglass-style cursor. The only way to tell if the dialog is busy sometimes 
is to move the cursor over a button and see if you get the little blue 
highlight on it fading in and out.  I can't tell you how often I've clicked 
on the wrong thing because the click got accepted the first time and it just 
didn't respond for a few seconds.

The number of times Vista lets the focus get stolen is annoying too. XP was 
real good at that, and I understand Vista tries to prevent pop-unders or 
something by not letting you *not* steal the focus. Seems like the wrong 
answer, to me.
