i know i've stated before that i'm going to build a computer for my parents, but this time it's unavoidable (and nobody here really remembers anyway, right?).

my parents are coming back (to canada) in march and want a computer.
my mom likes to install lots of programs, burn dvds, prepare picture presentations, download stuff, etc. and she wants the "best".

so before i open a thread asking for build suggestions, i want to know if you guys suggest buying components now (taking advantage of christmas/boxing day sales) or waiting until march (and capitalizing on possible price drops or new products)?
