I would expect that the vast majority of current XP users won't upgrade "on the same computer" to Vista. Rather, they'll just happen to buy a new computer with Vista already installed on it, and given the gradual increase in performance over time, the relative demands of Vista on a new machine in 2007 will similar to the demands of XP on a new machine back in 2003. As to what kind of horsepower would be needed to run PowerSDR under Vista, compared to running it under XP, I have no idea. As the first few Vista machines come out, I suspect someone will try it and see...
