Ok, so I have had the same pc for the last 5 years. It's time to upgrade. I have spent the day browsing a few sites, mostly newegg.com, and have put together something that should be good for another 5 years. Well, I will want to get more memory, but, beyond that the rest should be ok. Oh, and when it is setup for media center I will be upgrading my wireless network to N.

* I will not be doing any gaming.
* I will be web developing with .NET
* I will be watching free porn. (who doesn't)
* I will eventually use it as a media center and DVR
* I will be using it for home business stuff and financials
* All prices from www.NewEgg.com
