I have an Alienware Aurora desktop (got it mainly for gaming) that I'm currently using Poser on aswell, cause my other pc is acting up..  I doubt it's any better than any other computer with similar specs tho..

And no, I'm thinking you don't "have to" upgrade to pro just cause you're on a 64 system.. your old version will still run, just not at 64.. I think

 

And as people above me has said, with alienware a big deal of what you pay is just for the name.. I just got mine cause I'm a bit of a computer-bimbo and wanted something decent that I felt I could "trust" being put together properly :P

Oh, and the shiny lights ofc  :P
