Windows Vista Capable PC Hardware Guidelines
There is no reason to wait till Microsoft launches Windows Vista before you deploy PCs in your enterprises. Continue your PC deployments now. The Windows Vista Capable PCs allow you to the transition from Windows XP PCs to Windows Vista in your enterprises. Windows Vista Capable PCs facilitate the transition to Windows Vista by providing hardware requirements and guidelines to customers so they can make informed decisions on purchasing and deploying PCs capable of running Windows Vista before Windows Vista launches. Providing guidance on Windows Vista Capable PC hardware requirements reassures customers that their near-term PC investments will retain their value after Windows Vista is available.
Hardware requirements and recommendations for the Windows Vista Capable PCs have been selected to ensure that PC systems and components that fit these criteria will run Windows Vista and will enable the next generation of Windows applications. Enterprise Planning Guidelines are based on these hardware requirements and recommendations. By using these guidelines to procure PC system hardware, customers should be able to deploy systems that will upgrade well to Windows Vista after the launch of Windows Vista. In this way, customers can protect their PC investments today.

So basically Vista will run on any modern computer.....say computers that are 2 years old....with no probs except there will be an automatic disabling of features depending on the capabilities of the machine....right?

The hardware requirements for Vista seem pretty high (mainly to support the new GUI).
In an age where it looked like we could shift [at least basic] desktop computing to more efficient desktop mobile technology [which i use] and use less energy, the Vista requirements look to encourage the continuation of "bigger is better" consumer computing, at least until the comparitively expensive mobile platforms can accomodate a good value dual core solution.
Personally, i know that if i want to run vista, i will at least need to get a pci-e graphics card, as whilst my intel GMA900 chip can play the likes of modest games such as MOH Pacific Assault on 800x600 with medium settings, it wont support the Aero interface, which is slightly odd.
