XPS 410 (model)--very important for price, see below
C2D E6400 (2.13 Ghz) (processor)
2 GB (memory)
ATI X1300 Pro (graphics card)

It's been awhile since I was up to date with the hardware stuff, but I think this should have no problems running it, right? That is the kind of feedback I get from reading this thread, plus my rather out of date knowledge.

For those interested, It also came with a 19" monitor, 320 GB Hard Drive, and a CD/DVD burner. Price is about $1350 (US) b/f tax and any rebates you can get (I get a discount from my college, for example, but there are other ones a person might be eligible for). 3-5 day shipping is free. Quite a reasonable price, I'd say. If you go with a XPS 700 model, with all the other specs the same, it comes out to an extra $500 or so.

:Crosses fingers and hopes that he does still know what he is talking about with this kind of stuff:
Please don't put that graphics card in that system. It's such a waste. Stretch your budget a little and get the x1900 or 1950.
