Oh, that old Z800 thing? It’s 2 years old now. It probably wouldn’t out-perform your custom. Money is definitely an issue. Is for me too. Just that I’ve found the higher-performing systems to be well worth the $$ in productivity gains.  I did buy from a systems integrator (Matrox MX02). Mostly a video guy.

Well how nice of you (or your company) to have unlimited funds, but not all of us are so extremely lucky. For some people money is actually an issue. And cheaper isn't worse - it just means you get more for your money.

And I'd be happy to put your z800 against my custom built core i7 3930K any day of the week. :D
