15" TFT ----- U should be better opting for 19" CRT

Also go for AMD 64 s939 3000+ and Asus K8S-MX instead of P4 2.4 ad 865

Get higher capacity HDD since photoshop files takes up lots of space.
I have seen a friend's photoshop files running 100s of MBs. and when u save multiple version of project, total size runs in GBs easily.

don't take kingston,
take transcend or corsair

15" tft may be available for 10-12k or higher

19" should be better

take 2.8lga + 915 or higher
take 120gb instead of sata if space is a concern.

take micrsoft optical mouse
or better still
MS Microsoft Optical wheel mouse(has a better censor)

2.1,decent brand will cost upto 2k i think
such as altec lansing (not heard it)
creative inspire 2.1 is what people may recommend ,i have heard it and they are not too good

microtek 800va is for 2350

How about AMD64 s939 3000+ @ 7500
with MSI RS480 @ 6500
and onboard Video instead of AGP.

will be lower while in games as lack of dedicated GPU (onboard IGP is ATi X300) but better raw power as of s939
