The only companies you might be able to get a computer with about the same specs as those, would be alienware, or a company that buys parts and build it to your liking. No other company that i've heard of offers 6800ultras, amd 64 3700+, or OCZ ram.

Its not incredibly hard to build a computer, just make sure that all the parts are compatible and everything. If i were you, i would build it myself and save some serious $$$.

And i would get 2x 1GB OCZ memory, instead of 4X512MB OCZ. In the future you could upgrade to 4GB.
