No, it won't update automatically, but you may be able to go to the manufacturer's website and order an upgrade CD if they offer one. Usually just costs shipping and handling.

This just means it is capable of running Vista, it will not upgrade itself.
However, if you want Vista and you bought the PC very recently, you may see if the PC manufacturer is offering an express upgrade to Vista when it comes out. Many are currently doing this.

It might be hardware compatible, but, is it ready for the workload?
Tests by industry experts find that Vista bogs down with less than 2Gb of RAM.
and, you will get to spend money to pay for the 'upgrade' CD!
