This is an outcry.Its unfair.Why are YOU so damned lucky.No, its ok your cool really, but I am still soooo mega jealous of you, and who wouldn't be.I've just bought a fairly cheap for England laptop equivalent to $750, and full price it would be $1500 but it is still NOwhere near as good as yours.Anyway, thats life, the bet things come as desktops is my motto .Thats why I always buy Laptops and Notebooks.

Heh i wonder what graphics card is in yours.Mine was around $850 AUD and here is my specs - 3GHZ pentium dXP pro1 gb of ram ( soon to be upgrading to 2gb because of the stutter lag in bf2 )GeForce 6600 256mbcdrw120gb hdNot as powerful as yours as far as things like hd space and ram but mine is a bit more on the performance side, and getting the parts here in Australia is cheap if you build it yourself ( and go to the right store )anyway enjoy your new pc-HellFire

Nope, I do not.Pentium D with 2.8 GHz -> outdate technology, only Core2 or A64+ will doXp home edition -> erm, maybe Pro ?4 gig on a duo chanel -> that's just overkill250 gig hardrive -> about averagedvd/cd burner -> already have one24" flat panel ->maybe, but no thank youlogitech with bass extended speakers -> my surround is more than enoughand for those moments when you want to listen to music really loud soundproof basment. -> now that's what I want, at least it's cold overthere in the winter I bet your face is like this... but so was mine when it costed me $1,800+ -> , no way I'm going to spend that amount of money on a computerSo basicly, I'm happy with what I have and people should learn that at a given moment, too much is too much and even more important, bragging with your computer and your money is pretty lame

no, I wish I had this instead:

* Two 3GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon * 2GB (4 x 512MB)
* 500GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s
* 500GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s
* 2 x NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 256MB
* Two 16x SuperDrives
* Apple Keyboard and Mighty Mouse - U.S. English
* Mac OS X - U.S. English
* AppleCare Protection Plan for Mac Pro/Power Mac (w/or w/o Display) - Auto-enroll

but sadly, it'll cost me CAD $5000 for it...

eh guys, specially those buying the powerful beasts, why don't you tell us about the kinda activity perform on your computers?Are they primarily for gaming? If thats the case then its great. But if you are not a gamer, those specs are sheer waste of money. (maybe i am a bit jealous of your pc's power). But its true. Also I wonder why don't the people buying such configurations don't go for a good joystick. Coz if I were you, I would trim my budget somewhere to adjust for the forcefeed back joystick. After all I am buying it for Gaming!

I didn't get a very powerful hardware myself, because I am not a gamer of any kind, I usually like to play retro games through emulators.. So am not even interested into this kind of expensive hardware But, I also would like to have this, but maybe after one year it will all get cheaper.. I am really satisfied with my current setup AMD 1.7ghz, 1 GB of ram and an old cheap second hand Gforce2 64mb.. I needed a big monitor and I got it, so happily am using 1280x1024 and it didn't cost me a lot of money

Basically that's all they're for. Games. It'd be great I guess to experience gaming on one of those machines, but as stated before there's really not much use for it. Unless you're trying to make up for something you lack. Sorta like the "cool car" theory.All in all I'm happy with my machine. It'd be great to upgrade, and I do intend to. I'm a gamer as well, but as far as for shelling out for a joystick. I prefer a keyboard and mouse. Much more accurate than those analog controls. Especially for FPS, as for other types of games i guess a joystick wouldn't be bad. Pentium 4 2.6 ghz1 gb dual channel ram120 gb hard drivegeforce 6800xt agpsound blaster livexp proAbout it I guess. I'm not too technical. I don't know all the differences and what's good and not, but mine still runs decent after about 2 1/2 years now.

For those rather ignorant to mass produced limited-platform solutions, he is making an allusion to the Xbox 360, indeed a solid machine but from what im seeing, the PlayStation3 should make its statement a bit more boldly. Although there hasnt been much of an effort to release an abundancy of games for the 360, so id hope that as they have done in the past, playstation would make a bit more efforts to follow the course of thier system
