First off. Get a core 2 duo processor. This is a must. You will not be able to get good results unless the "brain" of your computer is good. A good processor is you brain.

You must have at least 2GB of ram. From the specs I assume that you are buying at a site like dell. If this is the case, go with the least amount of ram possible and then simply purchase additional 1GB sticks at Newegg.com. Good 1GB sticks of ram are as little as $35 a stick for newer computers.
