Now, this is third-hand info, so it has to be taken with a grain of salt.
And this sure as hell ain't what the License says!

What you likely didn't know was the licensed Starforce code buried deep
within Vista/DX10 ;)

Is there any real reason to get Vista? XP works fine for me.

Someday you may want DX10. Though that rumor about DX10 not being
compatible with XP may be more BS than truth.
Im enjoying Vista RC2 myself. It includes many nice features but most
importantly it is really the first version of Windows to focus on security
more than backward compatibility. Its fast looks great is stable and should
help stem the tide of internet threats. The price is steep (greedy
bastards) but if you go with the upgrade version of Home Ultimate or Basic
for $99-150 it not that bad. Well worth it if you have a DX10 capable video
card (of which I don't know any) but not really before then I guess.

I disaggree with your well worth it statement; maybe if it was $40 a
copy, but when driver updates or the inevitable hardware upgrade
triggers reactivation leaving you with no activations left the value of
vista really becomes a question of how much money do you have to throw
away
Ignore MitchA, he's just an ignorant buffoon. The Vista EULA has been
reversed because of all the ***ing.

It's good to see MS clarify the activation situation in our favor (unlimited
reactivations). As I said all along based on the evidence publicly
available the Vista activation mechanism will be no different than XP and
low n behold guess what..... It is the same...
Screamers like Trev and Critter are usually wrong and this episode of "The
days of RAS" once again highlights their ignorance at the expense of reason
and wisdom.
