PC, if you must

Walter Mossberg has a PC buying guide. Key points:

  • I believe every mainstream consumer doing typical tasks should consider the Mac. Its operating system already contains most of the key features promised for Vista.
  • If you want a new Windows PC, my best advice is to wait until January and buy one with Vista preinstalled.
  • Running Vista with all its features enabled will require a major increase in hardware power, and that means a costlier PC.
