Everyone suffers the obsolete when it comes to computers. It is like signing for that new $30k car that once you do sign the car is worth $15k.
I got 6 years out of my old rig and currently my daughters use it to good effect. With an upgrade here or there the longevity of your rig is assured. What I chose to do was get the OS with 64 bit. I had just noticed that 64 bit support is excellent and a lot of software companies are recognizing the additional power that is available. More applications are utilizing 64 bit. And again, the 64 bit OS supports 32 bit applications. So you get the best for both your application requiring 32 or 64 bit plus you can get 8 gig of RAM. I did. RAM was and is so cheap these days why not get it while it is hot?
