I use Vista simply because I have the power for it, I was dual booting XP/Vista for about a year and finally just quit using XP.

XP runs faster
Vista looks prettier BUT when you have 3Gb of RAM multi tasking is FASTER in vista. The majority of things will run faster in XP but as a light work type workstation vista is better.

I've tried 64 bit on both XP and Vista and they BOTH suck so I'm sticking with only 3Gb RAM for now. Maybe next year I'll be able to upgrade to 8Gb RAM and go 64 bit but it just doesn't make sense to do that yet.

oh and I've seen 7 come through a few channels but haven't had the guts to try it yet
