I recommend 2 to 3 gigabytes of RAM if you get a computer with a 32 bit operating system, since all 32 bit OS's only recognize (and make usage of) 3 to 3.5 gigabytes of RAM. If you get a computer with a 64 bit OS, the 4 gigs and above are what you'll need.
  The only downside of 64 bit Windows operating systems are compatibility issues with programs, since most programs aren't made for 64 bit OS.

  What programs cant you run with 64-bit OS that you can with 32-bit OS
like can you run sony vages movie studio.

Also is it worth the extra money for Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 10 Production Suite or will Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 10 be good enough.

Well, all I know is that the 64 bit Internet Explorer can't even run Flash, so you can't watch youtube videos or anything like that.

As for other programs I'm not really sure.
