I used to recommend waiting because of driver availability. I've recently
built a new computer and installed Vista x64. So far I've had no problems
finding drivers. The driver situation is much better than it used to be.
That said, if you have any hardware devices or software that you can't do
without make sure that they are compatible with Vista x64 first. Older Palm
devices, printers, etc, can be troublesome. 16 bit programs will not run.
