I would start from the OS selection

Hi and sorry to be basic but a PC without OS is just a piece of metal.
The OS is the core of a pc.
So i followed with great interest all the discussions on different OSs
without understanding much
Then i decided for win 7 because it is very common and also because is a good OS i think
When you have decided the OS then you should select an HW able to run it well
A good MB, a good pcu, at least 4 GB of fast RAM and a 120 GB SSD
around this you can build the rest
My feeling is the OS selection is key ... but Linus scares me (too complicated) but maybe it is even better than Win 7
But it needs a lot of knowledge
Maybe Apple could be a good choice, but it is a closed world
Just think that they have started to solder the ram to the MB
If you use an old OS like XP maybe you will not able to find drivers
Good luck !

Kind regards,
bg
