I have been advised to get a new computer to help me do what I am doing and wonder whether it would be better to build a machine instead of purchasing one from the brands that are now available. This is what I want.
My computer should be equipped with Windows 7 professional and I am told that it should be a 64-bit setup. What is the difference between a 32-bit and 64-bit machine and what are the advantages of having either one. It should also have at least 4 GB of RAM and a fast enough processor. It should be equipped with a good sound card that can show up the music that I am listening to but I have no idea of choosing a sound card. At this point in time I am using Office 2003 professional which I can use pretty good but my nephew has sent me Office 2007 and I don't know anything about using the ribbon menus. What about the motherboard which I should purchase to get the best out of the package. One other thing: I have been told that some software is not available for 64-bit computers. The last thing I need to have is a TV card so that I can listen to programmes on television. I hope my message makes some sense and I look forward to all the advice you can give.
