I think Vista will run OK on 256MB of RAM. It will be enough for IMing, browsing web sites etc.

Actually if you open several web sites, both IE and Firefox may use something like 200MB RAM. If you decide to play a game, it might require 200-400MB on its own.

With every Windows release, Microsoft targets more powerful PCs, and that's a good thing.
