If you are Nvidia and SLI, google it.

The ONLY thing it doesnt have is DX10, and the ONLY reason it doesnt is so MS can rip you off for 300$ for a Vista that was designed to please Big Media, and Big Hardware. (ie: it runs like shit). /rant off But yeah, XP64 is the way to go. i donno man the linux penguin is very sexy, very...

( 4-5k ) no really. . . . can shave off a bit by building on your own, but that 30 inch LCD does look nice ( unfortunately it adds 1.5k to the pricetag ) That rig should do you well for some time though. I'm doing my damdest not to buy another system for a few years.

In fact after XP64 is broken / obsolete, I will be 100% Linux As Long as AoC/DFO perform well in XP for the forseeable future, there will be 0 temptation for me to ever goto Vista. I loathe MS's new direction and plan to speak with my wallet. I know most ppl will say "yeah but its just one user, they dont care much about that" and those people would be correct. However it is still the ONLY thing one can do (for all practical purposes) that they care about at all. So meh.

I'm not sure why they've never had one (besides Apple in the 80's, but that doesn't really count since Apple's OS is proprietary). https://www.youtube.com/user/dungeongurunet

Nor does Photoshop / Z-Brush / Softimage \| XSI / Rhino and a whole list of other applications I use. sigh Much as I hate MS, I have to stay with em.
