I'd like to stick with single core so it doesn't draw too much power. Also, how's the motherboard? I'd like to stick with integrated sound. Also, why should I buy the inferior Microsoft mouse which doesn't have a laser and costs a buck more? Oh, yeah, I forgot speakers, too, and my friend isn't much of an audiophile. How's this look? The total cost right now is $1100.88
