I think I'm just going to get the parts and build a PC from scratch. After being in the IT field for a few years, I've aways wanted to do it. From everything I've read you get more bang for your buck that way.
If you are going to build your own, might check out Gigabyte Moboards with their dual bios chips...a little added security so that a bad bios flash doesn't leave you high and dry....
and check out a KVM switch so that Monitor , keyboard, and Mouse can be shared between two systems...I use the Linux system for access to the internet and the XP Windows for all the other stuff that everyone loves to do with Windows, but keep it off of the internet....
