Which computer should I get?

Thanks to everyone for the advice so far. It seems most people are recommending the HP, mainly because of the Athlon. To answer tractorboy, building a computer isn't necessarily out of the question, I'm just not convinced that it would be cost effective. I'm sure there's a lot more that goes into building a system than the 7 components you listed, and it all adds up quickly. I'm really just looking for a general all-purpose computer here. I'll soon be getting a desktop for the specific purpose of music recording and production. In that case, having a custom PC configured will be a no-brainer.

Uh

(especially since you say you want a general purpose machine, my box will more than likely give you a better experience than either the above boxes)
