Well depending on your cash supplies you should look into a dual cpu
system as you can never have enough power for plugins and synths in
realtime.
If not then AMD has a better rep in Linux land than Intel.
Plenty of RAM and ATI has better performing drivers than nvidia although
that can also depend on your mobo/vga combination.
Ask here before you buy with a list of specs and you'll get plenty of
feedback.

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No!
We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything
I've ever done.
