Don't tell me to stick with XP because I've never used XP. I still use Windows 98. So I need to upgrade, but how long should I wait until all the Vista bugs are worked out?

Can Dell computers only be upgraded by Dell hardware? I've tried to put some RAM and some other parts in my girlfriends pc, and it either won't recognize it. Or won't even boot up completely.

These two chips are the same price. However, I have a motherboard I want to use that only accepts no higher than dual core, not the new Core 2 Duo. Is it worth it to buy a new motherboard, or just use the mobo I have, and buy the Intel Pentium D 945 3.4GHz LGA775 CPU? (I have no CPU for this motherboard yet)

Is it really worth the extra money for a new mobo?

Once I replace the motherboard, will all my programs need to be reinstalled?

Also, if I only install a new processor, will I have to resinstall windows and all my programs also?

Im going into Video Editing for College and i need to choose a fast system to help me out with editing my videos. Ive worked with both Mac and PC and i really cant find a reason not to pick one over the other. Ive worked with a PC more throughout my life and i find its easier to find things. However, Mac it seems is more up to date with Video Editing and Graphic Art. Im asking for the actual computer. Not Video Editing Software. What Mac computer would be the best (ie. Mac Mini ...etc) or What Pc would be the best (ie. Dell Desktop). I simply need to find a computer system that would best fit Video Editing.

I build my own computers from parts I purchase. I would like to start selling them on Ebay and such, if possible. I want to sell the computers with Windows installed. Does this mean i have to sell the computer with Windows installed, and buy one brand new copy of windows with every PC that I want to sell. Please leave regards as to what other technicalities that I would have to look out for if I am able to do this.

Which should be the faster processor? an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ or a Pentium 4 3.2Ghz? I ask because on the AMD windows reports only 2.1Ghz whereas on the P4 it reports 3.19 Ghz. does this sound right? The P4 certainly seems faster.
