Nice hardware! Bad price! Unless they're throwing in a Sony 21" or bigger monitor that's not listed, you're getting screwed. Also, I'd recommend a 40GB or so IBM ATAPI hard drive instead of the SCSI option. It'll cost you less and provide about the same access speed. Maybe even faster access, if you get a 60 or 80 GB drive. Just make sure it's a 7200RPM drive.
