Even with discount, that's a little pricy for me. Anyway, I use flat panel iMacs at the school for video editing and they sound like jets about to take off when their fan gets spinning. I'd have to spring for the tower version.

I have an earlier generation Gateway P4 with USB built in, but the built-in USB wasn't even able to handle a USB 1.1 compatible external sound processor. That's the first thing I had to buy a PCI USB 2 controller card for. When I got the USB hard drive and tried to use the same PCI USB controller, the devices weren't so happy. I had to buy another PCI card! Someone explained to me that USB is bad with bandwidth sharing or something like that. Anyway, my PCI slots are full now! Crazy!

If anything, I'd get a Mac for the firewire support. I think firewire is more stable?
