Unless you're buying a standard pc, I dont know why you wouldnt just build it yourself, so much cheaper!
Nice computer, except for the vista ;-) Im waiting for windows 7 to come out before I get my next computer.

Yeah, I contiplated between Vista and XP Pro for a few days, ultimately Vista 64bit won out, due to DirectX10 and (as Leo says in the Howard Huges movie) "the wave of the future". Plus I got a free upgrade to Windows 7 when it is released. With 1 TB of disk space, I will partition it in the middle and have a 500gig Vista machine and a 500gig Windows 7 machine.
Also with SP2 out Vista is pretty solid these days, a lot of the bad press of Vista was pre SP1 and definately before SP2.
