Boy, that's a pretty subjective question...if you intend to do any recording, and especially if you intend to work with a DAW you need to get the fastest  computer with the most ram you can afford. If all you want to do is run the RM16.There is a list of compatible firewire cards here:

There are minimum  specs for all hardware and software with the specs... you can build off that.
