Straight from The Propellerheads.se Website mate:

Do I need a new computer? What are the system requirements?

Don't worry. Although version 4 comes packed with advanced new technology, it is still as lean on your CPU as Reason has always been.

These are the Minimum requirements:

Windows:
Windows XP SP2 or Vista
Processor: Intel P4 / AMD Athlon XP or better
Memory: 512 MB RAM minimum, 1 GB recommended
Screen resolution: 1024x768
2 GB free hard disk space
DVD reader
16-bit windows compatible audio card, preferably with DirectX or ASIO drivers
Recommended: MIDI keyboard with built-in MIDI interface, or MIDI keyboard and MIDI interface

Mac OS:
Mac OS X 10.4
Processor: G4 1GHz and up or Intel Mac
Memory: 512 MB RAM minimum, 1 GB recommended
Screen resolution: 1024x768
2 GB free hard disk space
DVD reader
Recommended: MIDI keyboard with built-in MIDI interface, or MIDI keyboard and MIDI interface

Hope this helps.

Should really have checked that fella, is it a similar kind of speak for all the production programs? Not made up my mind on that yet either?

To be honest mate my PC is

AMD64 3800+ DualCore
1024mb RAM
Geforce 7600
and 500gb of Hard Drive

and I can run Ableton Live/Reason/Cubase/Fruit Loops of which I own and not have any problems at all. I mainly do my stuff on my MacBook now though.
