I have windows vista home premium 32 bits installed and activated on my current Mac.

I'm selling this mac (with a clean Leopard install) to someone and I was wondering if the guy who's buying it will be able to activate Windows even though this code was already used by me. I wont be using windows anymore so I'm selling him the original cds with the activation code.

You guys have any info on that?

You have Vista installed and activated now. You're selling it without Vista, so you're keeping Vista for yourself. Yes, he will be able to buy his own copy of Windows and install and activate it on the computer once it's been sold, and you will keep yours.
