I can run Adobe Bridge CS3 and Photoshop CS3, working on photos, and at

and my word processor, and switch between the apps almost
instantaneously. If I also try to burn a DVD at the same time all these
apps are running, the slowdown is noticeable but management, and none of
the apps crash.
Try that with XP.
Plus, even though VISTA 64 is way ahead of its time right now, there are
some great new apps coming that will take advantage of it. As soon as
some start appearing, my current desktop will become a server and I'll
build a new 64-bit box.
What apps you use should always drive the OS decision.
And *most* new software will be developed with Vista in mind.
XP will be good for many more years for most people,
but if I was buying a PC/Laptop with 64 bit processor, I'd chose
Vista as the "free" OS to bundle in.
At some point XP will have too many drawbacks, and you'll be more or
less compelled to go to Vista anyway.

Of course dual boot is still an option but you have to do Vista first.
