situated in c\windows\system32\ is vista's 'SnippingTool.exe'. another useful in-built utility in vista to capture screen-shots. its shortcut can be found in the start menu>all programs >accessories.

it can take full-screen, particular window, any rectangle or free-form "snips" of ur screen & open it in an editor. here u can highlight parts of the screenshot and draw on it with a free form pen of different colors, thickness and tip styles. it is pretty easy to configure it as u wish to.
its appears 2 b a huge improvement over XP's built-in screenshot capability but yet still lacks some useful options like image resizing or timecapturing.
