Well, as much as I am normally against buying something that is out-dated by an upgraded version, I think you are still better off getting XP (Pro preferably) at this point. It is probably the best Windows OS right now.

Also, I wanted to mention that building a PC from parts these days is nothing compared to what it used to be back when I started doing it about 18 years ago lol. Back then, it was really complex to get everything working right and almost certain that it wouldn't all work right the first time.

Now, anyone that can use a screwdriver can build a PC. Unless you are unlucky and there is some odd issues that pops up, you could probably do it yourself. And, if all else fails, then you could bring it to a place to have it put together.

If you are planning to have someone put it together anyway, you might be best off getting a Dell, because you will get a better package rate and you don't get as much extra costs for the OS and such because it is a package.
