Anna has yet again provided a jewel. She has posted the specsfor her new computer. She promised to keep us updated as the partscome in; I am looking forward to seeing her compare it with her own"punch-holder" benchmark.
She designed a top end system, getting the new Intel i7 Extreme 3.2GHz with other top end equipment. The total bill was \$3,300 (over\$1,000 of that was the processor); so definitely not cheap.
