Is the .NET Framework installed by default on Vista?

I'm writing a console application that will be deployed with an installation of an application we are writing. The console app aims to fix a bug in vista that will allow our application to be installed correctly in Vista. The console application works fine, but can I count on the .NET framework being installed on all Vista machines - is it installed by default?

According to this site:

Windows Vista comes packaged with Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0, but not version 1.1, which may still required by some applications

So if your console application targets v 2.0 or v 3.0 you should be OK
