not quite sure what you mean by “artlight.”
Check out Mystical Lighting by Autofx:

Cropping will cut out pixels; image size will squash (or stretch) the image.
PAL or NTSC? For videotape or DVD? If tape, which format?

Have you asked in the Vegas forum? I’m not familiar with its VFX capabilities.

Particle systems can do what you want. Two popular packages are wondertouch’s Particle Illusion and Trapcode’s Particular.

Video is encoded at one rate but the overall rate includes the audio stream(s).

As I understand it, the audio editor is effectively a separate app from the rest of Motion. It has its own play and pause button that operates independently of the canvas playback button so don’t expect its animation to be exported with the video component. As Noah suggested, use FCP or Soundtrack Pro to animate its levels.

PCIe is a faster bus to the video card than the PCIx so you’d have a longer “shelf life” with the Quad than the dual, especially if you upgrade the video card to something better than the stock 6600.
On the other hand, you would be more inclined to replace the less expensive system sooner.
My rule of thumb is, if you need it now buy it now and don’t look back. Furthermore, if it’s a business expense be sure that either it will pay for itself within 9-12 months or be prepared to hold on to it for 2+ years.
