Keep in mind that "any possible issues on XP" would include much greater exposure to malware. Some such issues defy troubleshooting to the point of requiring a total reinstall of the OS.
It also seems to be the case that Windows has much more complexity, with two seemingly identical computers displaying subtly different behavior. The Windows registry in particular is a repository of much mysteriousness.
I won't dismiss the power of enthusiastic computer users to bring chaos to any flavor of system, however.
