You might call me crazy but I always wanted one growing up and now I can finally afford it.

How about I build you one with the same specs and you pay me the difference?

EDIT: By the way, 8GB is ridiculous overkill. There is nothing that can bog down that much memory yet anyway. I run three graphic-intense programs (Illustrator, Indesign, PS), Outlook 2007, AVG, Itunes and Firefox at work and don't even eat up 2/3 of my 4GB. But, like I said....let me build it and pay me the difference.

I'll take 500 bucks from that difference for like a consulting fee or something.

Well if you can, go ahead and do it. You can easily build that computer for way Less, and you don't even have to fret about style you can get really nice looking cases for pretty cheap and just mod the case and add the lights and you have yourself and cheaper, better put together computer that looks just as good. Unless you want to spend that extra grand on name and support, then you go right ahead.

Just like a Corvette isnt the best sports car for the buck but some people have just got to have one, some people just have to own an Alienware box.

But you can build a plain black mid tower box that will smoke that AW for half the price...

64bit home systems are today's SLI graphics cards. Over-promising and under delivering.

Hell, with the Intel Core-i7 chip it'll cost at least a grand to build yourself.
