Re: Pro Tools and buying a new computer
you can always do something not so fancy. Cubase or Audition 3 could work for making decent recordings. Remember that the first step for good recordings (hardware wise) are decent mics and good pre-amps, and obviously a whole lot of creativity.
For the drums you can always try out EZ Drummer. That's really nice and easy to use. I highly recommend it. Since my band split up I am doing all the recording and the drums are my achiles' heel, so I am using EZ Drummer for "programmin" and Superior Drummer for playback. It makes life sooooo much easier.
You don't have to go all out on Pro Tools even though I prefer to use it 100%.
Good luck,
