My own domestic workstations are 4 Ghz AMD64 machines with 2Gb of RAM 
and an Nividia graphics card.  Built by me.  I used to build machines 
for IBM and Compaq. There is a slight glitch in the graphics from time 
to time but mostly it's okay.

I find these machines to be good for making videos and editing them.  
Kino or something similar Good for editing images from my Nikon 
digital SLR camera and of course the usual word processing and 
spreadsheets and e-mail (Kmail) and web pages.
