Go get at least 2 gig of ram. Only then can your PC get to at least good performance.

I have Vista, it's been quite an enjoyable experience so far.
I see no compelling reasons to upgrade. Memory usage has never been an issue since Vista surrenders any in use to the active application and an upgrade is dirt cheap. Compatibility is fine, few issues in that regard. Most can be fixed with a dab of Admin rights or XP compatibility mode.

About damn time someone said this. Vista is fine, stop jumping on the hate bandwagon.
Although SuperToxic actually had some issues, his case is rare.

I have Vista, It's fine for me.
