Why do suse and ubuntu run houdini so much better than vista or xp 64 bit? Does NVidia have decent drivers for the 8800 under linux?

Hello everyone,
This is my first post and I would like to hear some comments on the parts I'm thinking about getting. I'm brand new to the world of 3D and have been wanting to start with Apprentice HD since it was released. Here is what I've got so far:
-Intel Q6600. Can Apprentice HD take full advantage of a quadcore processor?
-WD 320 GB 7200rpm HD. Would a 10,000 rpm drive be noticeably better?
-4 Gigs corsair memory
-video card. I really have no clue here. Some of the folks on cgtalk use Geforce 8800's, but I've heard that they can be really sketchy running Houdini. Would a Quadro card be worth it? If so, which one?
-Vista 64 bit - would this OS be OK or is it still buggy?
Thanks a bunch and have a good one,
Andrew
p.s. love this forum, btw.
