I think Dell/AMD match is the best value right now...

You could get an AMD X2 3800 with a 1 gig of ram, for $400, and then put in a pimp gfx card

You could try piecing one together from online stores. Tigerdirect.com and newegg.com have great prices. But, you would have to find your own copy of windows and put the system together.

building it yourself (or with help). You can save A LOT of money by not having to buy the extraneous *ahem* that PC manufacturers include with all their systems.
