In a small tower, Intel quad processor, 4 GB RAM in half the memory slots (expandable), two SATA 500 GB hard drives, one for OS, the other for data, with removeable drive kits, Upper end NVIDIA card, good sound card, highly compatible NIC 1GB, two ESATA ports.

The OS drive, multi-boot to:
1. Windows XP3
2. Ubuntu LINUX
3. Apple OS X (Intel)
4. Free BSD

Would this be cool or what? Does anyone know who does these kind of configurations off the shelf?

I do my own. Intel Core-Duo E4600 with 2G RAM, 2 IDE drives, 1 SATA drive, ATI Radeon X300, SB Audigy, 100Mb NIC (3-Com), Intel DG965WH motherboard.

1) XP
2) Ecomstation (OS/2)
3) Mandriva

Probably could add more if I was really interested.

you're never going to find this configuration "off the shelf" because mac os x is never licensed for non-apple-manufactured hardware.

what are you doing with FreeBSD?

Well, I got the AMD Quad core, Win XP-3, a Gig over 4 drives (eventually looking to put 2 2 gig drives in), the same RAM, and the NVIDIA card was built in. As far as SATA ports, there's 4.

There's better out there, but this was very reasonably priced. (http://download.ecsusa.com/dlfilepcc/menu/A15G_10.pdf)
