In the "Just Because We Can" Department: we decided to see if we could boot the latest Vista installer on a Bootcamp-equipped Macbook Pro. As you can see, it appears to start up with no issues. We did not actually install Vista due to the fact that the owner of this MacBook needs to do a full backup of his data before getting too adventurous. We’re hoping to do the full install tomorrow.
