My brain hurts!! What the hell is exactly in the system, I see C2Qs, I see 4870x2s then i see 975 i7s and GTX 280s, I see VelociRaptors then free upgrades to SSDs, free bluray drives. I can't look at it anymore and we're not even talking about price  yet :doh:

I'm not surprised. These kind of selling keep going on in ebay, and all they try to do is to fool those people who don't have much knowledge of PC hardware..
