Backwards compatability

I am considering buying a new laptop but have been told that much of my old software 
will not work on vista.  I have literally 100s of programs that I have collected 
over the years each of which have associated files that I have generated.  It would 
therefore not be acceptable if very few of them worked with vista.  Have I been correctly 
informed of this problem?  If so would it be possible to have parallel operating 
systems on the new computer?
