Yes Navin I know what an NFR is. :) But, most people do not work for resellers. That's why I didn't mention it. But, I wouldn't pay even 2k for something I can build for a lot less. The only reason to pay for one is so you can get the CD's with 2.5 and 3.0 on them. Unfortunately they cannot be downloaded.
