Microsoft today released the Windows Vista upgrade advisor which scans your computer hardware & advices u how to upgrade your computer for the best windows vista experience.
Although today they have also relesed information, on the minimum & recomended system requirment. Seems like the CPU requirment are mostly met by people, but the RAM requirment is quite high
Currently, as I check on the oldest PC i could find among my friends, it says that a P4 1.5 GHz, FX 5200 with 128 MB RAM & 1 GB RAM can properly run Vista premium with Aero. However it also said that it requirs 15 GB on C:\ Drive, right now i only have it set to 10 GB which works properly for XP. Maybe even 80 Gb is going to be small for Vista + the new application

To run the advisor U will need .net frame work 2.0. It doesn't require an internet connection

To be Vista-capable, a machine needs at least an 800MHz processor, 512MB of memory and a graphics card that can run DirectX 9 graphics. To carry the Premium Ready designation, a PC must have a 1GHz processor, 1GB of main memory, 128MB of memory and a graphics card that supports Vista’s new graphics-driver model.
