I have some basic questions for any Pro Tools user.

First of all, I'm a songwriter in Nashville and I'm curious about upgrading to a protools setup.

1. Why choose a Mac instead of a PC?

2. Besides the Protools software, can someone list what all I need? I can't seem to find any complete information on what to buy. And some general price estimates would be great. I'm interested in the HD recording and not simply recording it to the computer's drive

I probably sound like an idiot, thats because im pretty new to this. Anyone that could help and be a reference or a guide would be greatly appreciated

Don't worry, the latency we're talking about is only a monitoring latency (while recording), once the track is recorded, there shouldn't be any "slidding" of the track/region.
The only "real" latency you can get on a track can be caused by the use of many plugs. To check that latency-> Apple+click on the volume/pan/... button of the track (you'll see the peak indicator, apple click again and you'll get a "dly" indicator for "delay").
But there again, there's nothing too worry too much about... For example a track with no plug shows "dly=0" and one of my track loaded with a 10 bands EQ and a limiter only shows "dly=4". 4 is for samples... and I can tell you this: a 4 samples delay is completely unnoticeable!
