IIRC PrtScr captures the framebuffer to the clipboard, and from there
you can paste it into something like MS Paint. That's on XP though,
dunno about Vista. I heard something along the lines of current (or
future) graphics hardware implementations will lock the framebuffer
completely using DRM (I think it was an AMD/ATI announcement), so that
might cause Vista further disabilities in the future.
AFAIK you need to pay for, then install, third party utils to do the
likes of what gnome-screenshot/KSnapshot do for free as part of most
default Gnome/KDE installs.
