Ok...
I take it you are in the US.
That makes it idiotically simple for you. systems over here in Australia>
You can go Brand name or clone/custom. You can go to a Online store or you can go to a retailer.
Dell is good.... I got a US Dell. It works, they respect the warranty and you get a 'Brand Name Power'. .
If you want a custom build... you can get a sweet build... some places have already been mentioned, you just have to look. Off the top of my head look at Tigerdirect, Buy.com and um.... Newegg. There a wealth of pages you can go to if you want to build a system...
Oh what I could do with $1500.
Mind you that's just off the top of my head without thinking or even looking for a system or at a page. I know that there are at least 3 other dealers that I can't think of atm that are in direct competition to Newegg and would give you a good deal if you have the power of a screwdriver and can run a CD driver. I just can't think of them.
Basically follow the advice of those above... and above all read and ask questions... (and ignore everything I say.
)
How much bang you want? What do you really need and when do you really want it? A week is a -long- time in the computer building business... and a month or two an eternity.
