Story: Windows XP SP2 more secure? Not so fast

So let me get this straight - in order to have more comprehensive protection (DEP) I will have to upgrade my hardware as well as my software?
So I spend the best part of 2 grand on a computer that was supposed to be great, then finding out it's full of security holes that Microsoft promises to patch with SP2, and I now find out that I need to buy A WHOLE NEW PC just to get the computing experience my Mac & Linux using friends get everyday?
Give me another 6 months to a year, (around the time I was going to replace anyway), and you'll see me with a brand new Powerbook under my arm.
