Here it is. I'm willing to take suggestions on anything. I know I could burn Windows 7 and install it, and I might. Other than that though, any suggestions?

It looks like a good build but I would maybe go with a quad core.

So, I could just swap that one on the list with the one I have in this desktop. Anything else?

I'd replace the GX2 w/ a GTX 260...maybe add a second card in SLi in the future...

That should cost about the same yes?

Yeah, a little less after MIR.

PSU recommendation. <- Better and cheaper than the Zalman, IMO. Less wattage, but you don't need 850 or greater watts.

Ok, I have made suggested changes, except the CPU because I can just swap my current desktop CPU into the new one.

Any other suggestions or should I be good to go?

BTW, I'm purchasing peices at a time because I don't have 1500 lying around. What should I buy first?

Everything else looks pretty good. I'd get the power supply by the 31st, as that is when the MIR expires. Prices on the GTX 260 may continue to drop, so you may want make that one of your final purchases.
