After eons of use and I am talking 9 years of keeping this system operating, and crunching I am going to upgrade! So the task at hand is how much do I have to spend? And how about some suggestions from my TEAM Mates on IDEAS ! Reasoning is because my XP system ends in 7 days!

Price Up To $1600.oo
Must HAVE: Microsoft OS - Possibly Win 7 Ultimate (suggestions here too)
Must have Microsoft Office suite - I use this selection of programs daily.

Let your ideas flow
