-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Looking for advice

I just caught the end of this post and now realize that you're aiming 
towards buying a pre-made system rather than build one yourself.  If that's 
the case, the info I'm working to provide won't help you as much as it would 
towards building your own.

This looks like the mainboard they used for the build below.  The inclusion 
of a 3rd graphics port inflates the price of this board significantly, but 
the system builder did not use it (and I doubt you would, either).  I'm sure 
we could put together a custom system for a lot less money that would allow 
you to do a lot more things than the one below.  Let me know if you're 
interested in building your own or not and we'll go from there.
