In comparison to what?

Advantages:

 

Security, Stability and Performance

 

Disadvantages:

 

Little support for DOS based apps (see: Advantages, Stability)

Some poorly written programs play up in the multiuser environment and slightly different (read: superior) implementation of the Win32 API.

 

You trade a bit off but IMO at least, it's worth it.
