I don't think so.
Vista would be a better games machine iff MS was not so caught up in making sure the 360 is the premium games bed. As such they purposely stall releases to PC and/or not encourage developers to do a co-release. Either way MS is focusing on their console as a games machine.
I run XP at home (not rebuilt once in over 5 years) and XP on my work laptop. I can at anytime upgrade to a Vista machine. But none of the apps I run, including Office 2007 will work any better.
Some of my fellow techs want to use Apple Workbooks (still can manage Cisco devices off them)... and Apple is now more in line with PCs in their bang for buck... and if you want to play games well... you can either get a console or bootcamp it to XP.
Until a game comes out or a business application that requires Vista there will be no real driver to change across to it. As hardware gets better then there will be a natural takeup of the OS. But right now Apple has huge oppourtunities and they are for once taking up the challenge.
From the Apple website "How to move to Mac":
What is unusual is that Apple has been notorious in giving market share to PCs. If anything it wasn't Gates gaining a monopoly it was Job giving away a duopoly.Why upgrade to Vista when you can upgrade to Mac? Especially when you can move all your stuff from an old PC to a shiny new Mac in less time than it takes to add the memory, hard disk space, and graphics card you’ll probably need to install Vista.
