No thanks. Wait for some more 40% off coupons to come around, that's when the fun starts.

Well, if you see my sig, you'll see it's not for me, although I'd love to keep it. Should bring in over $2000 easily. Those dual raptors and yet a third hard drive, and a 3.6ghz cpu (I know, I know, but Dell doesn't do the AMD64 thing), I had to.

Yeah, the storage is what impressed me? O 'course, with my 40g WD, I'm easily impressed.

I totally agree, in fact I build my own. But it'll still fetch $2000+ on Ebay.
