36 gig drives? If your spending that much, make them at least 72 gig drives.

Bah, puny mortal machines, if you are gonna go all out, why stop there?

If I had unlimited money to build my dream machine, I'd save it until I could buy:

a dual Opteron motherboard (Tyan or ASUS)
A pair of the fastest Opterons released
2GB of PC3200 (or the fastest RAM available for the Opteron platform)
UW320 SCSI with 4xFuji UW320 drives in RAID 10 (if possible)
DVD-R/W (whenever a standard is ratified

)
CD-R/W (Yamaha or Plex)
GeForce FX
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz
Gigabit Ethernet card
Sony 24" Flat Trinitron monitor
Logitech Z-680 speakers
Logitech wireless keyboard/optical mouse kit
WinXP Pro 64bit
OfficeXP Premium

I have no idea what case I'd need for the dual Opteron mobo so I won't put anything in for it yet.

You could get a Mac dual 1.25 gHz system for $5000.

Yep. ... Sure could. ... And I could also beat myself in the head with a ball-pean hammer!!! Ferchrissakes people. GET OVER IT!!! MACS BLOW!! They aren't fast at ANYTHING!!! There is not a single application (assuming it's ported for both PC and Mac which almost every program that has a Mac port is) that runs faster on a Mac than on a decent PC. Lemme see.... 2 1.25GHz procs or 1 3.06GHz HYPERTHREADED PROCESSOR!!!

Sorry for the caps and what not. I can't freaking stand Macs. "I really like OS X though." I DON'T CARE! Why in the hell would I pay more for a system whose OS was, admittedly, better when it would run all of my programs slower? Good god, I'm actually beating my head against my desk at the same time I'm typing this. Somebody asks what you'd do with an unlimited amount of money, and the first thing you thought of was a Mac. This girl at work today was telling me about how she sold her Mac, which had dual 500MHz processors, a GF4 Ti4600 graphics card and 768MB of RAM so she could buy a system with dual 1.25GHz procs, a GF4 Ti4600 and 1GB of RAM. The whole tie I sat there and thought, "You know what you could upgrade your PC to with just the money you sold your old Mac for? Hell, you could buy a top-of-the-line PC that runs twice as fast as that Mac for half the price and still have enough left over to buy leather furniture and a good TV with. That's ridiculous.

I hope and pray for the day that there are no more Macs left.

Sorry for the tirade. I'm starting to lose it.

LOL!
Calm the fvck down! I was joking!

Oh, well that makes it better. I was thinking to myself, "Do they even realize how ridiculous that sounds?" I understand, though. It's hard to type sarcasm.

You see, I understand it's a dream system, but this is physically impossible. Plus, even if you could do it, you'd take up all of your expansion slots.
