You could put together a system with equal power to that one for around 1,250,000. Probably end up a fair bit more. Not including monitor. The dual graphics cards would be the biggest chunk at 250,000 each.

Ah! You want a blu-ray drive? I think they're still pricey. Don't know how much though.

Why get PC2-5300(667mhz) RAM? You can get very nice 800mhz RAM for the same money or a few dollars more. Get 2x2gb modules and then you have the option of using Vista and adding 2x2gb more in the future. 8gb of RAM will be standard in the not so distant future.

They are/were selling a dual HD-DVD/Blu-ray playback drive in the USA for around $325 last I looked. Here it's more.

Unfortunately, by that time the current 800mhz RAM will be obsolete. I'd say go for 4GB for now.

LOL at teh 56K modem! Also, AGEIA has been bought by Nvidia, so there isn't , and probably won't ever be, a separate card.
