Hey Guys, I'm way too lazy to build my own machine anymore, so I'm looking to get a new desktop. What do you think of this pc? It's $1399. I'll definitely wait for them to move it to Windows 7 before purchasing, but other than that is this a good machine? I should note that I prefer Intel and Nvidia over AMD and ATI.
