What's a good price for this system? Or any other comments most certainly welcome? * Genuine Windows 7 Professional 64-bit * Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-980X six-core Extreme Edition [3.33GHz, 1.5MB L2 + 12MB shared L3 cache] * 24GB DDR3-1066MHz SDRAM [6 DIMMs] * 1.5TB 7200 rpm SATA 3Gb/s hard drive from 1TB * 1.8GB NVIDIA Geforce GTX 260 [2 DVI, HDMI and VGA adapters] * Blu-ray writer & Lightscribe SuperMulti DVD burner * Premium Wireless-N LAN card and Bluetooth * 15-in-1 memory card reader, 1 USB, 1394, audio * No TV Tuner * Integrated 7.1 channel sound with front audio ports * HP Stereo Speakers with subwoofer and remote 50W * HP deluxe wireless keyboard & wireless mouse * Microsoft Office Home and Student Edition 2007 * Norton Internet Security 2010 - 15 month * 4-year HP Care Pack House Call Service * Hasbro Classic Games Bundle * Laplink PCmover Software Total price after instant rebate is around $3,600. I considered other systems, but Gateway doesn't give me the ability to configure and Dell... well, I stopped trying when, when trying to create a similar system, it started showing numbers like $5,500, a price I'm not willing to pay. Best Buy doesn't have anything even close to this system. My criteria are mostly that I want this system to serve for the next 8-10 years at least. I also like the idea of multiple monitors (which the video card should allow me), with one playing video while I do other stuff in the other. That's the primary reason for the power of the processor, the amount of memory, the video card, and the speakers. I also occasionally do video editing, which my current computer can barely handle, which is another reason to want to have a lot of power. In any case, any comments are welcome. Where I could get something similar even cheaper's always good, but, like I said, the thing I'm looking for most is reliability and something that can last.
