The problem is that many of the drivers you already have installed simply may not be compatible with Vista. so im not getting it, better off buying a completely new pc with vista on it!!

Even buying a new PC will not help as a lot of people are finding out. give it at least 12 months from launch before upgrading a PC unless like me you have a perfectly usable alternative OS I can play with it as it isn't critical to anything I do.
