Default Appraisal: Alienware 7700
Hey,

The system is a nice desktop replacement:

3.8 ghz Pentium 4 Prescott,
2 gigs of RAM (DDR2-667)
2 60gig hard drives (can be in RAID 0 or 1)
Go 6800 ( around the same performance as my 7600GT desktop model)
2 8x DVD burner's
17 inch display

Has no battery, so it is definitely a desktop at the moment.

System: Tygon Tornado

$400 is low. You could get more parting it out.
