Only $4600


Tempting...but out of my price range for sure. That's nearly half a PPL's worth!

it's a really nice system, albeit a little overpriced. personally, i'd like to have seen 4GB of memory.

I did think it was quite cheap for a prebuilt. Not that I can afford it.
Looking around, it seems that 4GB is a lot less common that 2X8800 graphics cards, which may suit other games better than FSX.

If like me you are wondering what is the price. Sit down, deep breath $4,600
OS 32bit? wouldn't we expect 64 or is that something else I would expect for that much $ ? :o

yeah maybe, it's only $20 or so more expensive
besides, you really need some 64bit software to take advantage of a 64bit OS
