Well firstly you need to be a registered MS Subscriber and more importantly you'll currently only be able to download the first Demo version of Vista. RC2 will be coming along early next year and isn't currently available yet.

The current version of Vista well actually Longhorn is actually little more than XP with a different GUI on top as none of the so called improvements have been worked out yet.

The system requirements are about the same as for XP but the more RAM that you have the better so a fairly modern CPU and 512 MEG of RAM should do the trick nicely, although at the last Partners meeting the MS technical staff where recommending 1 GIG for better performance.

The RC2 release of Vista should be out late the first quarter of 2006.

Well if you want to save your money & not join MS you'll most likely have to wait till the RC2 release becomes available late 1st quarter 2006 then you should be able to get a copy directly from MS.
