The second one.

Works best especially if it runs Linux instead of XP. Preferably the latest version of Slackware with either the programming languages BASH or Perl. Or if you're a n00b with programming, then go with RedHat. Or if you're even more of a n00b, then stick with Windows.

I haunt the Astral and reap the mortal life


Through the moonlight's mist
I enter your soul
Which withers from purity I defile
I am the Darkness, the Night that lasts forever

Bluetooth is only useful if you need to interface with other wireless devices. For the most part, you don't really need it.

I know I've never needed it.

definately the second computer

And bluetooth is getting more useful but it's not necessary. If you have the money go for it but if your on a limited budget save the money for something else. Like and adobe program suite. WAAAY better than microsoft, more complicated but you can do more professional stuff with the adobe programs. (and I'm not just talkin photoshop)
