Vista is fine for a completely new system (no old software to install from old PC).

I use my vista PC at home (athlon X2 dual core, 2GB ram) for general purpose use.. internet / media center (hooked up to my xbox) / etc.

For working at home I use an old XP pc (2 GHZ athlon, 1 GB ram) to run all my old software.

Personally, I wouldn't upgrade an XP pc to Vista, too many potential problems. But, for a new system as long as you have 2GB+ memory and some decent processing power.. the thing will work flawlessly. All the conspiracy-like hate for Vista is just your usual anti-microsoft, anti-windows super-geek everyone-should-run-linux paranoid compu-weirdos.
