Check the Dell website...

You can get a Dell E520 with similar options (including FSX Deluxe) for
about half the price...

Interesting. I just went through all the rigamarole of building a
similar system on the Dell website, and ended up at over $2100.

See it he (Only addition is Flight Simulator X)

How'd you come up with less than $1000?
