 Here's a tip that will solve all your problems: Sell your 360 and get a PC. 99% of 360 games start with, or venture to, a PC version. Not only that the games are cheaper, there's mods, DLC, forums you can access with a quick ALT+Tab, etc. If you have a problem, hit the Print Screen button, go to paint, and post a picture of your problem.

So here I am, missing out on an avatar picture, missing out on designing a character for each origin, not being able to carefully weigh my talent/spell trees in glorious detail and am having trouble making a fully informed final decision on which PC to play through first. In short, it’s excruciating.

Maybe it helps to tell you that apart from getting an avatar, the CC doesn't really let you do any of the things you list. I mean yes, you can play around with the settings and make something pretty (Or hideous, depending on your preferences), but that's just about it. You can also see the skill lists, but the information those lists give is severely limited and insufficient to properly plan out a character build (Not to mention that most, if not all, of the information has been added to at least one wiki).

In short, unless you feel compelled to join one of the numerous CC challenges, the tool is little more than a nice gesture on BW's part, with at most one to two hours of content, most of which spent messing around with the sliders until you have an acceptable face.

I am getting both the 360 and PC versions.. I will probably make different looking chars on the 360 version.

There’s only one problem pre-launch: My laptop doesn’t have the fire power to run the Character Creator.

To be honest you aren't missing out on much. The CC is buggy as hell, and to my mind was probably an ill-judged decision on Bioware's (or EA's) part. It sure doesn't instil a lot of confidence in me as to the stability of the game itself.

Consider that it was a BioWare developer that came onto the forums and asked us "We're nearing release, but we're planning some stuff to do in preparation for release, is there anything you, the community, would want?" and then the cry came for a pre-release character creator and they said "Sure" and we got it.

I have never seen anything like that from any other development studio, so saying it's an "ill-judged decision" on anyones part is like saying "doing favors for the community is like pushing salt under your eye-lids".

It's frankly more an indication of how ingrateful some people really are.
