Hi guys 
OK so I am in the market to buy a KICKASS pc but don't don't want Vista! I'll be sticking with XP for a while.
Anyway have any of you ever heard of *buydirectpc.com?* Seems they offer PCs that are configurable by the user. I put together a PC that I think looks pretty kickass but I'd like to hear your thoughts.
And no I can't build it myself because I suck at it, and don't really have the time. Plus, I like the idea of having a warranty.
