If you won a lottery would you buy this?

I know this is Vista forum but...

A Mac? No....

And why would I need to hit the lottery to buy that? It's cheaper than the laptop I own now.

I never played with a mac so I think it's just an
expensive rig ( I heard it's good for super users of pictures,video,music stuff )

what the freak do you have?

32 gb ram??? Omg.

Just a tricked out Alien X17 ... But it's not a Mac!

It's a Mac so of course not. BUT, I would build the ultimate Windows gaming machine

If I won the lottery, I would contact a small company in Idaho. They build stone castles to order starting at $460 per square foot and going up from there. They have a nice 3 story one for about 12 million dolars US. Appliances included.

I might add the Great Hall onto it. I think its less than a million dollars US. Along with a drawbridge and moat. Probably talking $18 million US. Not including land prices.

Then a nice stone building for my library. Rent an 18-wheeler with driver. Go over to a large bookstore. No, not the typical ones in shopping malls, probably one that has a large used book section. Back the truck up to the doors, and says 'Fill it up ! No duplicates, no kids books, no rmace novels ! Thank you !"

Invite some of my relatives over, ask Emeril if he wants to cook for us as a 'house warming'. Maybe Bobby Flay.

Get a health checkup. Make sure I stay in good health. Exercise. Eat healthy, except when Emeril comes by.

Send photos of me laughing, to the people who told me I would never succeed and become wealthy.

Hey, ya gotta think big if you win big.

edit:

Oh yeah, get my Amiga computers working again. Buy lots of spare parts for them.

hm.... windows 7 super computer :D..... and a corvette and new guitar.......... haha

 

[MrNeeds]

its always been a dream of mine to build a rig with unlimited amounts of money, imagine that, 3 way SLI with watercooling, core I7 extreme, 16GB DDR3.... awesome, nothing will stop it from running smooth....... until next year.

 

[naxself]

I wouldn't buy that solely because the mouse is probably terrible.

Just build the same thing with a Windows machine. For half the price, hehe.

 

[Extensa]

This is what I would get... Looks pretty good.

That 16GB RAM is already behind as there's 4GB stick of DDR3 coming out now, and most x58 boards can have up to 24GB RAM ...guess it shows how fast "the best" computer can not be "the best" for long.

I can't say I'd ever buy another Mac. Apple's got a great eye for design (I think their GUI beats Microsoft's hands down) and the PowerMac/Powerbook case designs are beautiful, however a Mac to me is useless. People say they're better for design professionals, however I choose CS4 over Final Cut Pro. Sure I could buy CS4 for Mac if I won the lottery, but why switch platforms if it offers nothing to benefit me other then saying I bought an overpriced tower with a pretty OS.

If I won the lottery it depends on how much as to what I would do.
The computer I have will do what I want.
I would like to buy some land and design my own house beside a lake.
Backup power and sat coms. Design some extra pcs for entertainment and other systems then network them together to a central server system.

...Not worth it?
you could build it for far less.
