Ok, I need your opinion(s) on what gaming/general computer to get, money is not an issue anymore.

get a supercomputer, put it in your fridge, (ya know, so it doesnt overheat
) hook a monitor, keyboard, mouse up to it and have fun
Mod edit: Do not make needless, incessant usage of line breaks and ALL-CAPS

Wow.
Anyway, you should really build your own. You could save a few hundred dollars that way. And for that kind of money you could make a really hefty machine. I mean you could have 2 GeForce 7800gtx's in SLi, that would literally play any game you throw at it at highest settings. And it would keep your PC future-proof for the next few years.

That is the only time when I am not lazy, when building computers. I wish SLI was possible on a laptop

even if money is not an issue.... you could MAKE a BETTER computer then a shity alienware for HALF the price....
And if they don't accept Jesus as their Personal Savior, you can kill them later. How cool is that!

Well I doubt I could get much better than:
Dual GeForce 7800 GTX KO SLI
Dual 74 GB Raptor HDDs at 10,000 rpm
One Western Digital 500 GB HDD
4 GB ultra low latency RAM
nVidia SLI-e chipset with RAID 2
Intel Pentium 4 3.8 GHz dual core processor with Hyper Thread
Dual 23" LCD flat panel displays
a 3.5" 160 GB portable HD
All for $6000

Wow, you could buy a really nice used car for that kind of money. Why will your dad spend $6000 dollars on a computer for you?
