So yeah. I keep stealing people's threads with my random questions of "Do you think I should do this, etc".. so I'm making my own. I've talked to a couple people on here about random subjects involving my possibilities, so I figure I'll make it an open thread and see what you guys think. So far, this is what I'm going to go with. It was originally going to be a 450$-500$ budget machine, but it's opened up a bit. :/ Curse newer things.

Now, I know I could go with the 640GB HDD of the same kind, probably for 10 bucks more, so it's on my little created Wishlist on Newegg. Depends on if I have more cash by then, or if other stuff drops.
Any thoughts? Advice? Suggestions? That's all appreciated. Thanks a ton.
