school work (word, excel, powerpoint)
partypoker
AIM
FireFox
winamp
utorrent/downloading music

Sometimes I do all at once, and I'd like it so it doesn't lag. What do I need? I figure I need 1GB of RAM, since I have 512 now and it lags. But uh, what's good for a processor?

I don't do online gaming like WoW or anything, and I don't watch movies, just the occasional highlight or youtube clip.


get 1gb of ram - wireless card - a dual core anything will be nice (64bit isn't a big deal since alot of software and hardware isn't 100% there yet) -
