I almost got a 23 inch Cinema Display but I just couldn't justify the cost. So instead I got a brand spanking new Viewsonic VX2245wm. I highly recommend this display to anyone looking for a new Flat panel. It is a 22 inch display although the resolution is only 1680x1050, it is a huge improvement over my Samsung 204B. And at only 400 bucks itr is a great deal with the integrated iPod Dock.
I plan on getting a Light-scribe DVDRW drive and a 320 GB hard drive to load Windows on. Right now I just loaded Windows on one of the 500GB drives but I will be putting the 500 Gig drives together on a Raid to hold my Video work as soon as I can get that straitened out.
I must say that this things is faster than I ever thought it would be. My P4 was killer, my G5 was great, but this things blows them out of the water. WoW and EQ2 both run flawlessly with frame rates off the charts, and the ability to run both OS's on one machine instead of having a KVM set up and wires strung everywhere is such a bonus.
My only complaint has been that one of the sticks of Ram appears to be bad so I am running with only 2Gig right now.
I am a happy camper, and just thought I would come out of lurking for a bit since I was so excited. Now I am back to finishing up my wedding planning and getting the programs done.

You only play wow and eq2w-hat
No but those are the only two I had installed so far. I am having some graphics issues in Dawn of War. Some of the text is not showing up properly. I can only see parts of some letters in the game. I get the feeling it has something to do with the Nvidia and ATI drivers not playing nice together.
And yes only 2GB. For gaming that is fine yes, but for production work it is on the lowish side. And while I love to play, this is a work machine as well.
Wang wave elsewhere.
