The key is the video card. In my experience with Hoster the processor is the LEAST important. Get as much video horsepower as you can afford. In my perfect world, it would be easily upgradeable. Next would be system memory. Max it out. See if your son can get the operating system installed without all the crapware. Better yet, if you buy from the business side, I think you can still get XP. I just think we are going to look back on Vista like we do Windows Millennium Edition. After that it would just be personal preference. I would also consider a dual boot system. One for running Hoster with a clean operating system and the other if you need to use it for other things.

In my sig, you can see that my test machine is Vista. The more I use it, the more I hate it. I don't need hand holding from my operating system. I am sure that the so called "security" features are fine for my grandmother, but I need to get things done. Finally, after fighting with it for a while now, I turned off the UAC (user account control). That is the most irritating thing on the planet.
