i found a local place that's been around for 10 years, and has two other branches. about $1570, which i think is alrite, cos that includes little stuff like modem, floppy, kb +mouse, software, speakers and stuff that i don't think u included in ur quote

te modem = 25
keyboard = 27
mouse = 30
speakers = 70

software lol, if u want legit then nahh.. :p

i dont support custom made systems from stores, because i know for sure 80% of parts are old parts lol... trust me on that one they give u old parts they have lieing around.

i invite you to give some evidence

besides that is only looking at the current generation of nVidia products....

the only advantage of ati is that vga reset feature, which isn't that pointful and only on the XT cards.

longhorn wong be released for ages.

I can't provide evidence, i know people internally within the product development, nVidia products were never so compatible, as pointed by them, but they are going to be making it work nicely in the final release, because of their close vendor relationships, but gfx card wise nVidia isn't even good, Raedon's are really nice GFX.
