Thanks to all for your time and input. Some good leads to follow up on. Whether I go PC or MAC, right now I'm just trying to understand if their are minimum processor, RAM and hard drive specs I should observe. Again, my needs are simple: listen to internet radio output to my 2 channel system, read email, surf the web and post to A'gon :-). I do currently have an outboard DAC, Kimber USB cable and fiber optic coax. Thanks Elevick for input on the sound card. Seems like that isn't something to worry about. Also, I'd been leaning towards an HP.
To all the MAC fans out there, I respect your input. Apple must be doing something right to have such an ardent following. Might be a little beyond what I wanted to spend, however.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.
