    Do you plan on BUILDING your computer or BUYING it from a company such as Alienware or Dell?

    Also, what kind of perphirals do you want besides a monitor and a computer? I would love to help.

    I'm not very knowledgable about manufacturer computers, so I tried to get you something you would like. I wasn't sure if you wanted to use your computer for gaming.

    I included a sound card with your "package". I know you're a computer newb, but trust me, putting a sound card in is easy.

    Your stuff. Click here.

    If this is not what you wanted, please forgive me.

    EDIT: If you want 7.1 speakers, I will put them in there.

    Merged Post:

    Indeed, and it it's to expensive, you'd have to build one. And yes that pc is a ripoff.
    So to clear up what do you all need? A LCD screen, boxes, soundcard?

    Your stuff, again
    Of course pre-made computers are a rip off. They always are. Quit stating the obvious. Building it is always cheaper.

    You're asking for a good computer but all you really want is speakers and a monitor. Do you want it to have a big hardrive and fast? If you're not gaming then you won't need a good graphics card which will definetly make it cheaper.

    if your looking for a sleek computer you should by a Mac Book, or a Mac Book Pro can use awesome apple programs such as garage band, hook ur guitar to the mac and make music with apple loops and make awesome songs, send em to itunes and then share them to the whole world, a music fan should always use a mac :)
