yaa..vista itself take around 8 GB.
And minimum hard disk required for vista installation is 15 GB free space.

Actually, I thought in little different way ......

Thanks for pointing

Vista requirements says it needs 15 GB. I would suggest to dedicate somewhere around 20-25GB.

There are lots of updates for Windows Vista.

This is what I will suggest.
Total Partition Size - 30 GB
8 to 10 GB for OS Files.
4.5 to 8.5 GB of Free space for DVD Burning if C:/ is pointed as temp directory
Misc Space for Office and other software
