Question:
Alienware Area-51 7500
I want an EXTREME desktop machine that I can use for everything. I will mainly use it for education and business. I will download a lot on this machine. I will play games here and then. Everyone says that area 51 or xps are for gaming only. But do you think it will benifit me just mainly using it for education and some entertainment? Or am I spending way too much just for that. I also want to use vista later on.

I'll move this to the desktop section so you can get more feedback.

my personal opinion - you dont need to pay dell or alienware top dollar for your pc. education and business are fields that (generally) have been well covered by pc power for some years now. pretty much its games and games alone that push new technology on the pc front.
i see you at a budget of under 1k.
build it yourself if you can for the experience. pick up a 64 bit processor for vista. ill help guide your part selection if you need that sort of thing.
