Numerous hardware devices which are not getting drivers for 7 either.

One of the reasons some of us will continue to keep old XP machines handy.

Outlook and office I'm not sure of, as I got a handful of licenses for Office '10 from work, so I never attempted to run the old versions on the newer machines.
