>From my POV, there is nothing compelling about upgrading to Vista. So the question to my mind, is not "why not", but "why"?
All the applications I currently want to run, run very happily on XP, so why should I consider spending more money on newer hardware, when the OS is probably going to suck most of that extra processing power anyway. >From all I've seen, it's mostly eye candy, and eye candy doesn't work for me; for example, I run XP with a classic theme for a start. Okay, so it may be more secure than XP, but I'm careful what I download/open, I run a firewall, anti-virus and anti-spyware sweeps, and I've never had a security problem with XP, so I don't see the need from that point of view. I'm sure I'll update my view at some stage, maybe when I come to change my PC, or start wanting software (e.g. Photoshop CS3) which only runs on Vista, but right now, there is nothing compelling about upgrading to Vista. YMMV.
