It turns out the answer is "nothing".
This site has a link and article on how you can use a Vista upgrade CD to do a clean install without having to buy a full version.

Normally, the distinction is that a Vista upgrade requires that you have proof of a previous installation of Windows - and so is considerably less expensive.

Technically speaking; nothing whatsoever.
Practically, the difference is how lighter your wallet will be.
