Hi - I agree with the other replies that you've had - I would just
add that if your intention is to buy a nice new top-spec computer to
get improved performance then PLEASE don't then put Windows on it!!
Linux is pretty easy to install and administer these days, and MacOSX
(Apple) is even easier - so I would very strongly recommend either of
those options instead of Windows.
Cheers, Steve.
