Phew, well it was getting a bit crowded in the HD4800 series driver news thread so I thought it sensible to start the conversation here.
First of all we have the original news story:
http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2008/03/28/nvidia_vista_drivers/
http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/27/nvidia-drivers-responsible-for-nearly-30-of-vista-crashes-in-20/
But there is further information relating to this data:

Now discuss at your own discretion, please keep it clean. I don't expect there to not be fanboyism but please keep it clean...

Nearly 30% of logged Vista crashes were due to NVIDIA driver problems, according to Microsoft data included in the bundle. That's some 479,326 hung systems, if you're keeping score at home, and it's in first place by a large margin -- Microsoft clocks in at number two at 17.9 percent, and ATI is fourth with 9.3 percent. Now, the chart doesn't contain a ton of additional information that would help put it in context -- a specific time period in 2007 would be nice, as would and driver and OS versions -- but we've been hearing about NVIDIA issues with Vista from the start, and this seems to confirm it.

Pretty good news for NVIDIA as Forbes has an positive article on NVIDIA and cites data from Jon Peddie Research that team green had a marketshare of 71% in the discrete graphics card market in Q4 2007
