Default Hard Disk crash - rebuild with vista?

. ..
Just had my main hd crash on my main desktop pc.
Its unrecoverable so i'm faced with a RMA replacement and a rebuild

Given that im gonna have to rebuild Im wondering is now
the time to jump ship to vista ?


Ive got a athlon 64 3500+ and 1gb memory
graphics card is a geforce 6600gt (agp)


Should i stick with xp or would vista be a sensible move at this stage
and if so which version (32bit or 64 bit ?) of the premium edition

Opinions anyone


Its an operating system.
You spend 99% of your time in applications not the OS.
Unless you want to use one or more of the applications supplied with vista
why waste the cash?

Thanks in advance....
