Also alienware makes some mean machines.

Have you also looked at having the machine built ? Find a shop in town that specializes in video. I had my machine built by a dealer here in Montreal. I found their name on the Avid site as a recommended reseller. Together we specced out the machine and then they built it….I couldn’t have been happier.

Thanks, those are great resources. I just discovered quad core processors, that blows my mind! You guys know if After Effects can even utilize a quad core machine?

NEVER EVER UNDER ANY CONDITION BUY ALIENWARE!!!!!!

I have horrible stories to tell about them that span a 7 month ordeal but I dont want write a 5000 word essay (I had to take them to court and WON…got my $7000 back.)

But I will %110 endorse BOXX computers, they are built for our field and due to the smaller stucture of the company you get better customer service. When you mention about AVID, after effects, Cinema 4D…they know what you are talking about.

AGAIN, NEVER EVER BUT ALINEWARE!!! Their computer dont work, customer service doesnt care, managment says “your problem not ours, just count it as a loss.”

Thanks for the heads up on Alienware.

I don’t know about Boxx or Alienware, but DELL has always been a favourite of mine. Their PCs are realiable (from my experiences) and customer service has been excessivly efficient for me.
