Don't get the 2.2ghz computer, get an alien ware area 51, they are coming with 2.53ghz now The best gaming machines money can buy: www.alienware.com
You can even customize it, here is the price I came up with if I added the best equip you can get: $13,390.00

Here is the Area51:
Dragon Full-Tower Case (340-Watt PS) (Space Black)
Intel

That nowhere near the best equipment you can get... Especially at that insane price..

The drives only an 80gig, and it's not SCSI. For 14k it should be
a SCSI rack with RAID, and I'd expect alot more than 80gig..

You can easily do a dual processor for that price, I'd go with dual Xeon 2.2's before going with a single 2.5.

Creative Inspire 5300's are decent, but for that price this thing should have a 500W Klipsch system...

Only 512 Meg? 1-2 Gig at least...

The CD writer and DVD should be SCSI too.

I'd say that anyone who bought that system would immediately lose 10,000 bucks...

Oh, didn't notice the price at the bottom... That did seem like the craziest thing I'd ever heard...

Thats not too bad then..




Actually, alienware does make nice machines, I'll agree with that..
I played with one in Best Buy the other day, I was pretty impressed at home well it seemed to perform.


On to the actual topic.
I don't know the story there, but I do think that there is something wrong with a father having to shell out 20k of back child support and it ending up in a kid's hands, instead of being used by the mother to support the childs needs, not wants. Unless your pop has some dough saved up, he's more likely going to end up in prison than being able to shell out 20k to fuel your computer gaming. If your mom has one ounce of smarts, she'll not give you a penny and put it in a trust to help you out with college.
