I want to buy a Vista enabled PC, but what do I look for?

[Zoikes!]

I thought this group would be a good place to ask some straight up
questions on buying a new Vista ready PC.

I've know all about needing a disk with flash memory on it and that
I'll need a kick ass graphics card to run glass interface, but I'm
unclear about how to pick a system which lets me run some of the
software I need to do my work.

I want to be able to securely surf the net and not get any pop-ups or
worry about any hijacked sites containing rouge code which can exploit
my machine and recruit it into a bot net. I also need to use the
industry standard Final Cut Pro video editing software and Logic audio.

It'd be nice if I could run Linux in a virtual machine along side
Windows too - oh and of course do it all 64 bit native.

Wait a minute, what's this on Apple.com? iMac? What the hell is an
iMac? Wow - these things look cool. Oh and hey, it's cheeper than a
Dell?

OK, panic over guys - I've found exactly what I'm looking for.

Good luck with IE 7 - dick heads.

You failed right from the start since there are Vista specific newsgroups,
and you would be better off trolling there. You're not very bright in more
ways than one, eh?

Oh... I understand... OP hopes to find Bright 1.0 within Vista;-)

Right; you want to buy a new car so you get all your information from a
bunch of used car dealers. That'll work. Ever hear of a company called
Microsoft?
