If you where building a computer with unlimited money. What would your dream computer be like? What hardware, what software, what OS, etc? Even if the software you choose, or hardware, isn't made for Linux or a specific OS. This is a "dream" thread so anything goes.

I know this is a Ubuntu (Linux) forum. But it does not have to be a Linux system.

Moderators. I searched the forum to make sure this wasn't a reoccurring discussion and all I found was the "Dream Computer for Linux" and "I am Designing a Dream Computer." This thread is not just for Linux and can fall into many other areas, including fantasy and wishes. Like Adobe actually having Linux versions of all their products and so on.

Well a DNA or quantum computer would be kinda cool, but realistically in today's world here would be my ideal computer:

Desktop with high energy efficiency and low fan noise
Intel Quad-core processor
8 GB Ram
2 TB Solid-State HD (why not? :))
2 Blu-ray/DVD/CD/R/RW/DL
a 1GB Nvidia graphics card
7.1 HD sound card with good speakers
21" monitor with built in webcam/mic
Linux 64-bit (not sure which distro)

anything more is kinda overkill for me :)

LMAO. I would love to see Win95 run on that.

Edit: Better yet make it Win95 64bit (128bit?)
