The old power hungry P4 with HT or Core Duo without HT?
Well one can get Core Duo with HT (the Extreme) but the price is also extreme, ouch!
I'm thinking maybe a not cutting edge Core Duo pending the Core 2 release which apparently will be a real screamer without needing its own power station to run.
Speaking of things PC, I'm amazed at how much grunt you get on video cards these days, support for two monitors at 2K res, WMV and H.264 hardware acceleration and support for HDR video. Not that any of this means didly squat for Vegas I know but heck one can play video games at higher res and greater bit depth than I can edit in. I think reality needs to catchup to its virtual cousin.
