I admin (in a team) over 100 workstations and over 30 servers on a corporate network. We deploy pretty nice machines--almost everybody has a dual-core box with 2GB of memory and dual monitors. Vista should, from a hardware perspective, do quite decent.
One of the big things I'm looking forward to is the new ability to block hardware installation by device ID via GPO. I would absolutely love to prevent people from attaching their iPods to machines on my network...
