Windows Vista x64 & x86 Installation Size

Can anyone that has installed Vista tell me how large their Vista x64 and x86 install is? I wanna make a partition large enough for the install with a bit of extra space for updates and some headroom for swapping. Btw, I plan to put the pagefile on another hard drive.

 
I have a 50GB partition for Vista Home Premium x64. I haven't done any cleaning in a while, I have system restore enabled, and it's using ~20GB. If I was to do it again I'd stick at 40-50GB so I have some overhead for optimal performance.
 
Vista install needs a minimum of 13 GB

but the ReadMe and Docs says you need at least 16 GB or 20 GB for extras.

so if you are tight, make sure at least 13 GB, if you have plenty of room then 20 GB is the recommended
