If you could build ANY PC you wanted (money was no object), what would you have? No super computers, but something for personal use

I'm not sure what I'd have, ideally a multi-cpu system with a couple of 26" LCDs Heck, a hi-res projector

Id have an FX57 CPU with 4GB RAM and a couple of 7800GTX in SLI. That would do me fine!!

 
EVGA 680SLi Motherboard, Intel E6600 LGA775 3.4GHz OC'd, ATI Radeon HD 5850 1024Mb, 4Gb Corsair XMS C4 2x Matched Pairs, Samsung Spinpoint's 740Gb RAID 0 SATAII, Antec Three Hundred Case, Windows 7 Home Premium.

one of those 4CPU (dual dual core opterons) jobo's would be cool, several GB's of RAM, a RAID array of 15K cheetah drives with 1TB of hard drive space, TV cards dual 7800GTX's with an Ageia physics processor, and the usual other bits

 
I'm out of bed and dressed, what more do you want?

I always take life with a grain of salt, ... a slice of lemon, ...and a shot of tequila

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out

One more step to enlightenment ... but which way ?
