XPS by Dell is pretty good, and expensive. I got their XPS M140 (they no longer make this particular model) because when I go to college it will be my media center. Computer, TV, DVD player, whatever. It's got 2GB of memory, Windows XP Media Edition, 80GB harddrive, bought my own speakers by creative, bought my own mouse, keyboard included, microsoft office basic (but then i found open office, with is essentially microsoft office but developed by indepedent software designers and its FREE and compatible with office programs). I was able to customize mine, the only thing I wish I had is the TV tuner, but I didn't feel like shelling out $100 for it, i'll just be a cheap $50 TV later.

XPS is your best if you don't know how to build it. I think building one is alot better cause you can overclock it unlike the manufactured PC that is locked.
