I can't believe that. Someone retarded put that together. You don't use Xeon processors for gaming machines - or even desktop computers in the first place. Their bus/memory architecture isn't as efficient as a P4. Jeesh. I could build a computer for $5k that would run circles around that thing. Plus that case is a flippin box - its got no air flow in it... I swear that almost pisses me off that someone would build that more than anything.

Well put Killer. Anybody could make a computer that expensive, but what's the point. By the time you could fully use everything in the case (which normal people would probably never do), better technology would be out that makes it obsolete. Just seems like a dumb and pointless task for a company to do.

I would say he spent about 20k too much in my personal opinion. I could build a wet dream of a computer for 6k, and that is including a couple 32" monitors
